Plus, she spent the extra money and got the special reserve.

Well, you I can see mixing then. You want to get your $$ worth from that Special Reserve Sprite...

Almost miss drinking.

Before "officially" becoming a diabetic I thought I had developed an allegy to alcohol. I would drink 4-6 beers and have the fuzzies for 2 days.

That was the sugar- not the alcohol.

Anymore than two beers and I begin to get the fuzzies. Very bad. Makes it cheap to go out however.

If you switch to hard alcohol - Vodka, rum, whiskey, etc. you don't get that problem apparantly. Beer is high in carbs so it knocks your blood sugars all out of whack. Hard alcohol isn't and doesn't.

In a college level art class my father did an experiment. He painted a bunch of bananas over and over. Each new painting he drank more.

In the beginning he had beautiful still piece.

In the end the bananas were purple with lightning coming out of them.

I wishe he would have saved that so we could see it. Would be awesome.

My understanding is Scotch works that way but the others will still mess me up. Either way- I avoid hard alcohol. My parents had trouble with alcohol so I avoid most of it.

I hope you are being facetious. It was the Crown Royal special reserve that she mixed with the Sprite, anyway it tasted kind of funny so we'll be trying it with 7-Up instead.

Never seen it. Is it a good movie?

I'm an Edward Albee fan so I might be biased, but yes, it's really a great movie. Elizabeth Taylor deliberately gained something like 40 pounds just to play the part of Martha - now that's dedication!
