To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine... and those who don't.

As Ben Franklin said: In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria.

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:
Water = Poop,
Wine = Health.

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of it.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I'm doing it as a public service
 
Gotta love old Ben, he was way ahead of his time.

He died in 1790. The word bacterium wasn’t coined until 1838. And the germ theory of disease wasn’t widely accepted in the west until late 1800’s.
 
"Beer is evidence that God loves us and wants us to be happy."
