"Half a glass of wine a day may add five years to your life, a new study suggests. Drink beer, and you値l live only 2 1/2 years longer."

I'm thrilled to find out I actually did something at Duke to improve myself. Not only that, I packed the equivalent of the alcohol consumption needed for the rest of my life into four years! Glad I got that out of the way.

Thanks for the link. In vino et veritas!

I wonder if you drank a glass of red wine at each meal (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) if you would enhance the longevity effect.

If we are limited to half a glass, I want a very large glass. :D

I've heard this said on the radio a few times, but they say if you drink too much it negates all of the benefits.

Oh yeah? You may not live longer, but you'll be numbed to the pain of endless Sweet 16 flameouts.
