Yeah, a little each day. One on each of 7 days, not seven on one day!
By the way, it has to be wine for the heart. There's something in the grape. Researchers believe it's actually in the grape skin, as red wine has more of an effect than white wine for cardiac protection. In fact, there's some evidence that grape juice (purple, not white) works just as well, but that's not as much fun! |

Yay! Even more cause to celebrate with that 32 oz. glass.

Well, if that's the case, I guess my heart should be in great shape after last weekend at Fort Dobbs. I had Canadien beer and French wine, and the Jaegers had some really good Cognac! It was a fine time.
Sounds like the typical graduate student Friday night . . . except that our wine is usually of the fine $3-5 quality. |

Red, "...except that our wine is usually of the fine $3-5 quality." Nothing wrong with the cheap stuff, long as it tastes good Thanks, I felt better, least wise until my gall bladder started acting up last thursdy . Got to get an ultrasound Monday. Suddenly I feel like I'm falling apart. But I'm not allowed to do that. I'm married to too pretty a gal. She might start lookin' for some young guy ( ) Actually she was standing here looking over my shoulder when I wrote that. I meant it though. (honest!!!)

The thing about wine is, it tastes better with every swallow! (Pretend those are clinking wine glasses!)
I'm lucky, though; I haven't had a gall bladder since 1981...gallstone attacks ain't much fun! |

Events usually have two kinds of camps. Those that like to sit around a fire and talk about the "shining times", and those that like to party. The French, thankfully, seem to fall mostly into the latter category. They camp away from the Brits, so no problem (not that there necessarily would be for that reason). But in the Rev War events, the Brits seem to be the fun-loving ones and the Americans split somewhere down the middle. That makes for some ill feelings in the American camp, with the resulting problems. So, when all is said and done, it's good to be French! |
