    One FB friend (one of those not-really-friends you met through an old job but no sense in defriending now) has a glass of wine in EVERY picture. And she posts regularly. If a glass of wine a day helps you live longer, she's gonna go to age 742.

    I love red wine and it is my one big splurge in life. But there is nothing I hate more than listening to people talk about it. Just drink and enjoy.

    Worst hangover of my life was from drinking too much homemade Italian wine when I was 18. Can't remember ever drinking wine otherwise.

    White wine gives me the hangover. And Mad Dog.

    Mad Dog gave me my worst one. There is no close second.

    I assume that's because you were 14 at the time.

    I drank Mad Dog during my early-mid 20s. And at 45 years old and with about 250 bottles of good-great red in my basement, I still drink it 3-5 times a year.

    They also walked just about every place they needed to go and didn't spend all hours of the day just sitting around.

    In other words, we are led to believe our health problems are based on what we eat, when they are really based on the fact that we drive our cars all the time to go to an office and just sit, sit, sit.

    You might wanna check the average lifespan of that list before you make statements like that.

    There was a restaurant critic in Nashville who loved Southern cooking, but became a crusader to get people to stop eating so much of it because those people were now white collar workers behind desks instead of farmers burning off 4000 calories a day through manual labor.
