Alcohol.....80,000 will die

Had an aunt die from lung cancer.
She never drank, never smoked.

She did serve in the Pacific during WWII though as did many (most) of my uncles and aunts. They all fought cancer.

My Stepdad died from lung cancer, he was not a smoker. But where he lived most of his life there were lots chemical refineries.

It's true alcohol kills people, but how many are born because of it?

:laughing: :drink:

My buddies dad didn't drink, didn't smoke, didn't even freaking swear. He died at 42. Probably all that stress from not letting it out via drinking and swearing.

Interesting. Do you think it's hereditary, or from pollution from the war?

my father drank a bit too much (i guess)... and died from pancreatic problems from drinking over the years at 73. my little brother died at 46 from pancreatic problems in the exact same way - he drank mostly every day. i was a causal wine guy but 100% gave it all up a year ago and have not missed it. my thinking is that some people might be more tolerant to alcohol than others...given my family history im not going to test it. btw, my father did not drink more than the average guy. to each his own.

It'd be funny if it were 0.08 percent!
(the legal limit!)

Ironic, yes. Funny? Not so much. :confused3:
