    Did most of my drinking from 16 to 21. Finally realized this wasn't the lifestyle I wanted (thank you Southern Comfort). I now reserve my drinking a couple of beers on kilt nights (no more than three over 5 - 6 hours, driving you know). & wine on special occasions. If I buy a case I will drink three a day until it's gone, so I usually only buy two cases a year. One in summer one at Christmas. I will also drink a 26er of SoCo over the course of a year. Thats my poison, no rye , scotch, vodka or such. I'm 41 now with two kids under 10, they don't need to see dear old Dad hammered all the time.
    You don't need to drink in excess at every opportunity. Enjoy the atmosphere, the company. Know your limits and keep to them.

    Sir Winston Churchill once said:
    A single glass of champagne imparts a feeling of exhilaration. The nerves are braced, the imagination is agreeably stired, the wits become more nimble. A bottle - produces the contrary effect.
    Words of wisdom from a man also quoted as saying:
    When I was younger I made it a rule to never take a strong drink before lunch. It is now my rule to never do so before breakfast.

    See... but I just skipped the 16-21 stage altogether. I'm all about quality, not quantity.

    start chewing sparky!
    Crown Royal is second rate mouth wash!!

    the best Rye (Canadian Whiskey for you Yanks)
    ever bottled was Royal Charter bottled by The Hudson's Bay Company
    until 1992 then never to be seen again.

    there was a time in my life where Rye was sort of a hobby.
    to this day you can line up a bunch of shots of different Rye's
    and by smell and taste i can tell you how old the Rye is and 9 times out of 10
    who bottled it.

    you want really good Rye, try Gibson's Finest Gold Label or their Sterling Label it's 25 year old Rye!! talk about smooth!!!!

    but thanks to my medication i no longer drink.
    AND I'M FEELING MUCH BETTER NOW!!
