Red Wine Fights Radiation Better than Iodine

OK So red wine goes with beef and Nuclear Meltdown. And white goes with chicken and bird flu. And gin and tonic is for blood pathogens. Now we just need to find something cured by beer and I'll be all stocked up for the Armageddon party.

Look for in the next few days, John (Heinz) Kerry producing a report that swigging bottles of ketchup will negate the effects of radiation poisoning.

I’m glad I can’t take iodine. (per doctor) Gives me a good excuse to drink. :-)

[relictele]

Nobody’s posted yet so here goes:

I’ll drink to that

Once again...Fred G. Sanford is ahead of his time...

"Kelp works too, filled with natural iodine. FWIW. "

You can have the kelp, I'll go with the Cabernet Sauvignon.

Now if the subject was Bulgars, I could probably trust their scholarly pronouncement. As it is radioactivity poisoning, I will have to trust scientists schooled in the experience and literature regarding the prevention of radiation sickness.

Guess I picked the wrong year to give up wine for Lent.

Thank you my dear friend Smoking Frog. We are radiation immune as we consume a lot of red wine. Just as a back up we went to the health food store and got some Kelp capsules but the wine is a lot more enjoyable.

Down in New Orlean, where everything is fine
All them cats is drinkin’ that wine
Drinking that mess to their delight
When they gets drunk, start singing all night

Drinkin’ wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin’ wine, bop ba
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin’ wine, bop ba
Wine spo-dee-o-dee, drinkin’ wine, bop ba
Pass that bottle to me

[Outlaw Woman]

Ted Kennedy is back?

[Licensed-To-Carry]

I hope good scotch will be just as effective.

[Starboard]

I’m convinced. No further evidence needed. Another reason to stock up on plenty of red wines.

[Starboard]

Some folks, they like whiskey, they say its mighty fine
Some folks, they like moonshine, they drink it up all the time
But my Daddy well he told me “Son, keep your head in line”
Drinkin’ that wine, wine, stay drunk all the time.

Look at them luscious little bottles, sittin’ up on the shelf
Red and yellow, green and blue they are something else
Something else they mesmorize me, the way they sparkle and shine
Drinkin’ that wine, wine, stay drunk all the time.

Beer cures (and causes) marriage.

I am drinking red wine now, but this gives me a better excuse.

Its good for kidney problems, it is a blood builder (so a doctor said but I don't know why) and it is high calorie if you need that.

[AlexW]

I drink at least one ltr per day, every day ;)

[Eye of Unk]

I predict that the SF bay area will have a severe shortage of red wine in the next couple of days. All the iodide pills were probably bought by the Mormons, the jet stream will head straight to SF with another to Baja that will then curve up into Chicago.

I expect that many many liquor stores will be hit by looters.

That is if the word gets out what red wine can prevent.
