Ah, your opinion is always changing with the wind, so no need to worry about me getting a big head, but thank you for the compliment anyway.

Don't get me wrong, I don't abstain completely from alcohol, but I have never had a buzz from it. Once in a while I'll have a glass of wine with dinner, or some cordial after dinner, but that is about the extent of it.

For me, coffee is my thing. I have a Tassimo machine with an entire lower china cabinet drawer full of coffee. I have three different kinds of espresso, along with cappucino, latte, french vanilla, columbian, french roast, house blend, etc. You name it, I probably have it. Oh yeah, the two side cabinets are stuffed with coffee too, but those packages are the unopened ones that are waiting to replace any that I run out of in the main drawer. Tonight, I had some apple turnovers with a cappucino. Now, it might just be time for a french roast before I get back to work.

By the way, my aversion to alcohol was from seeing my dad and brothers drinking massive quantities of it. The only time I didn't think my dad was the greatest guy in the world is on some occassions when he was drunk as can be. He said and did things that he never would have done if it weren't for the alcohol. Alcohol also managed to get my brothers in a good amount of trouble, and continues to get one of my brothers into plenty of trouble. On top of that, when I am in Court for criminal matters, you would be astonished to see how many of those matters are related to alcohol, and I'm not talking about DUI's.
