Default In case you needed a reason to drink...

As Ben Franklin once 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 liquor because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:
Wine = Health.
Water = Poop.

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

Thanks!

Gotta ask; "once", what happened?

Not that etymology is my thing, but I think the Greeks would have used Dionysus and Bacchus was the Roman name for the same god? Either way, I'll hoist a glass for you! (Dang, that was the end of that bottle!)
