That Wine thang......

Wine is so underestimated. "Its just wine". But its so sneaky & manipulative , especially the good stuff - makes you think you are being elegant, cultured, a Gourmand.

I agree! Not only is that true when you are seeing ads in magazines-but when you go out to dinner-and everyone is dressed so metro chic-and the lights are dimmed and they all have wine in front of them- it's so glammy! But, fast forward those people to the next day-and what do they look like and how do they feel?

Hi Folks,

Seeing the title of this thread, I couldn't resist throwing in my two penn'orth (or should that be two cents?).

Wine has specific properties that sets it apart from other alcoholic drinks. For anyone interested, please take a look at the following paper by Dr Olivier Ameisen:

http://alcalc.oxfordjournals.org/cgi...t/agm058v1.pdf

Then, although it is only an abstract, go to:

ScienceDirect - Forensic Science International : The presence of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) and gamma-butyrolactone (GBL) in alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages

The gist of this is that GHB is to be found in wines but not in other alcoholic drinks.

Interesting, eh?

Didn't give a thorough read thru-and now I did- it has properties that simulate " spiked" drinks-apparently-so this is interesting, a bit.

I would think that SUGAR would be the big difference!

I am facing a counter full of bills, am sorting trying to get on top of it and its VERY stressful!...I don't have enough time to take care of my life, more or less myself. I need to quit my job so I can take care of responsibilities, but then need the money ot just keep head eye level while I am treading water.

Any one out there to chat and distract me from taking some sips while I sort this pile of overdue bills??

yes I will
