Water vs Wine

a joke from my "conservative" ex-boss....

As Ben Franklin said:
In Wine there is Wisdom, in Beer there is Freedom, and
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 shit.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable
information: I'm doing it as a public service.

Rambleing thoughts a bit of my life.....my faith.

My thoughts here, my ramble (which I sometimes do too often :o), are but a bit of stuff of my life, that may shed some thought of my faith or my idea of faith.
I don't go to church often, don't shout the or rejoice Gods name in public, and sometimes, question the existence of Jesus, as his son (he has not arrived yet?). So how strong is my faith? Growing up in Quebec, Canada in the 50's and early 60's, I was influenced strongly by my church. My Catholic church. I attended private Catholic school until 4th grade, until we relocated to California, where I then attended public school. ( read more )
