It was that demon whiskey that started us down this path to perdition!
And I'm only being semi-sarcastic.
I think it's safe to say alcohol has destroyed more lives than all the other drugs in the world, combined. And if you've ever known a hard core alcoholic, you know exactly what I mean.
I have 4 buddies from High School that didn't make it to 40yrs as a DIRECT result of drinking. And they caused nothing but misery and heartache until they took their last breath.
I guess things would have worked out better if they were potheads in addition to being hard-core alcoholics.
