Wonders of Alcohol

 Wonders of Alcohol


Now that foreign liqueur is totally banned, if I do not list ten (10) or more of the wonders of alcohol here it is an insult to the the mankind ability to discover from prehistoric times.

1. It is the man’s first discovery that alcohol elevate mood and euphoria. The other method of delivering euphoria is intense time consuming meditation.
Both are human addictions and lasts only momentarily.

2. Alcohol removes inhibitions.

3. Alcohol in moderation (politician are adept at) makes one to speaks fluently on matters of no significance.
President Trump impeachment is a living example.
Both Republicans and Democrats speak with no end in sight on flimsy (not political or economic matters of worth) arguments.
I request all Democrats to douche in alcohol when Senate start deliberating it today (12 hours in one stretch).

4. In my case alcohol makes me to settle my nerves and play a good game of snooker or billiards.

5. It makes me to tolerate unwelcome guests in a party, wedding and funerals especially where even the enemies come to celebrate!

Mind you now avoid all three by gut reaction.

6.It makes me to discover new ideas to ponder over the table “Wonders of Alcohol” is one out of many.

7. It made me to discover that it destroys all feel good hormones released by a good piece of chocolates, in the liver by default.

8.It make me to forget all the promises given but never acted upon by the party in power.

9. It makes me to forget all important part payment I own.

10. it gives you Happiness (Ecstasy) on one side and cancer on the other.
A truly double edged sword to stab an enemy.
Strangely in this country nobody offers a drink to an enemy on the other side of the aisle.

Why did you give up alcohol?
If somebody asks me this question, I have two ready made answers and a few more thought provoking ones.
It effects my memory and my sleep.
I had a fantastic memory as a kid (which many of my friendly fellow beings did not have) and I did not have to take notes.
Equally, I only took short notes in strips of paper not A 4 size but that fitted in my front shirt pocket.
That is also things or the idea I heard for the first time (did not believe in them first hand).
Eg; Evolution
I loved my sleep and my mother would not wake me up.
She was an early riser.

The reasons outside those two are many.

Recent tax imposition which was a draconian law for the liberals.
I only prefer to drink alcohol not taxes.
The effect of alcohol on liver, especially on feel good factors (hormones) of chocolates is an important discovery for me.
Fact that, alcohol hijacks the important biochemical pathways in the liver and depletes micro-elements is another reason.
Alcohol turns non carcinogens to carcinogen and the vise versa.

It is a double edge sword.
My current intention is to highlight the good things about alcohol.
The book will be published after the election when voter goes back to his routine mode of drowning aspirations with ample alcohol.

Happiness (Ecstasy) on one side and cancer on the other.

Cirrhosis and depletion of glycogen are few others.
Sugar metabolism and early morning hypoglycemia can be mortal in your sleep for the elderly over 60.

One does not have to be a diabetic.

It effects driving skills and a common cause of accidents.

It is a universal cell poison, including brain cells.

Two points I missed and not mentioned in the description of alcohol side effects in web pages and sites are;

Compulsive gambling and legal problems related to money matters.

Like politicians (new breed and the old) they can become compulsive liars (to buy the next drink or to buy basic needs including food for survival).

This is where domestic problems arise, including violence.

The debts increase and responsibility decreases.

There are many more to fill a book of decent size.
