A bottle a day keeps doctor away...

But I cannot imagine drinking a bottle every day. Did not do this even in my heavy drinking youth

I did.... maybe that's why I can only drink three fingers worth a day now! And beer... if I were to drink an entire bottle or can, I'd be dead!

I can, and do drink a bottle to myself in a day.

Not me. If I did, it wouldn't be long before I rationalized two bottles per day. All those empties would sure make a racket on trash pickup day.

Back during my college days (circa 1970's) I was able to drink an entire gallon of Muscatel over the course of a day... along with several beer chasers.

Thats part of being at uni, you learn, frequently,what your limits are. I learnt that I can drink 10 pints of Stella in about 3 hours, just don't expect it to stay down! Lol

That would be like 4 bottles of wine a day, I draw the line at 2

Every single day? 7 days a week, 365+ bottles of wine a year if you celebrate from time to time and drink more than your daily regimen? Wow. A real wholesale customer

Powdered Alcohol is Coming to a Liquor Store Near You

Putting a can of beer in a brown paper bag is about to look like child's play. A new product that's somehow been approved by US regulators makes booze as discreet as a packet of sugar. It's called Palcohol, and it transforms a shot of vodka or rum into a pocketable pouch of powder. Tear it open, add some water, mix, and you've got hard liquor. Considering the age group that Palcohol is going to appeal to, however, the sweet, pre-mixed powders are probably going to be far more popular. To start off, the company plans to make margarita, mojito, cosmopolitan, and lemon drop flavors.


It's not hard to come up with ways kids are going to get in trouble with this one, but Palcohol offers a few suggestions on its website (cached) ranging from sneaking booze into places like movie theaters and college sporting events (where alcohol is banned) to sprinkling it directly onto food so teens don't even have to stomach the bitter alcohol flavor. Just in case you don't get the idea, the product's motto is "Take your Pal wherever you go!"
