On drinking.
It is possible to drink often and get drunk rarely.
Just thought I'd point that out because a lot of people tend to assume that anyone who drinks regularly is a raging alcoholic.
One or two beers a night will not get you drunk, probably won't even get you buzzed (unless you drink them really fast). I happen to drink, on average, 1 beer a night. Sometimes I don't drink anything, sometimes I drink one, sometimes I drink two, every great once in a while I'll have 3. But that's usually the full extent of it.
So do I drink? Yes. Do I get drunk? Rarely.
Just pointing that out for those who tend to make assumptions.
