Alcohol Study

A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles in a year.

Another study found Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Kind of makes you proud to be American.

  1. An extremely well written, short article!
    Many of us 'recovering-alcoholics' are attempting to force our Government into making Laws that require all liquor manufacturers have large Health warning labels on every container. But seeing as a good percentage of our Officials, like to drink, I'm starting to wonder, if we'll ever
    see it happen!
    Couple of questions for you. I would like to send you a copy of my letter, on Health Damange caused by ALCOHOL,so if you could let me know if possible or not.
    AND in your opening page, I love that line 'Guard me......'etc.
    May I have your permission to use that same line in my 2nd work avenue, that being to help others in grief & sorrow, through our Lord & Saviour.
    I will NOT use it though, until I have your written okay.
    Awaiting your reply.
    God Bless.

  2. Sheila, the words "Guard me..." are taken from Psalm 17:8 in the Old Testament. They are not my words to give or withhold permission but are free to anyone who wants to use them.

    Send me the letter. My email address is under my picture on the main page of the blog. I well know the damage caused by alcoholism, having grown up in a household with an alcoholic father.

    God bless you and keep you in your recovery.
