Most of us are adults here, and many of us are casual drinkers.
The question that I wish to bring to our grand round table is this:
1) Do you drink alcohol more than once a week?
2) Have you ever had a problem with alcohol consumption? (As told to you by others, if not admitted by yourself)
3) When Is Alcohol a problem? What lines have to be crossed before a drinking habit affects an individuals or a families lives?
I personally no longer drink, although I used to consume a fair amount in my younger days! I now have some friends with alcohol related issues, however, and wanted to get some feedback from the Forum.

Gambling with Reality
One could also drink some coffee and ponder the positive things about alcohol!

Can you spell S-O-B-R-I-E-T-Y?
Would you say that alcohol is a bane to spelling?

Its one thing to get drunk occasionally as a teenager...as long as you are not driving.
Its quite another to get drunk every other day or so when you are forty and have a family and/or responsibilities.
Enjoy it while you can, and use the brain God gave you.
