Re: depressing...
I am very much a creature of routine and when I get home and start to cook dinner, I have a few drinks in the course of it - then eat. Maybe one more drink after dinner.
​
I don't see anything wrong with that. The question is, what do you do on your days off?

Re: Drinking balanced with healthier activities
And yes - I regularly enjoy a couple of beers after a long ride.
​
That's no big deal--in fact, it's healthy.
​
By the way, EZscience, I haven't seen you on here lately, but thanks for your explanations of some scientific concepts to me a while back.

reading science
the opportunity to enhance scientific understanding in others.
​
I came to this forum to learn more about the scientific basis for evolution, but I do run into problems, not being sufficiently trained. Right now I'm reading "What Evolution Is" by Ernest Mayr, and my problem is the technical terms. Of course, I look up the definition, but the definitions also consist of unfamiliar technical terms. People object to "popular science," but for someone like me it would be useful if accurate. If I knew enough, I would write a "popular science" book myself.
​
That would be a good job for Crashfrog.

Re: Drinking balanced with healthier activities
heavy drinking isn't only incredibly unhealthy, but it ruins the benefits of what has the potential to be a very good thing.
​
You know what's funny though? I have the remains of an outstanding constitution.
​
Being superstitious, I hesitate to write this, but I have really never been sick enough to go to a hospital.
​
I just don't get sick. And I drink like a fish.

Re: Drinking balanced with healthier activities
But before you get too excited, I wanted to point out some of the negative side effects of excessive drinking:
​
Pancreatitis
​
Livir cirrhosis
​
Degenerative central nervous system disorders
​
Abnormal sleep patterns
​
Impaired ability to think abstractly (this can last a couple months off of a single binge!)
​
Cardiomyopathy
​
Hemorrhagic Stroke
​
Depression
​
Lowered sperm count
​
Impaired sexual stimulation
​
I'll just stop there...
​
Thanks a lot. I'll wait a while and then commit suicide.
