How Much Alcohol is Too Much Alcohol : Stop in the name of love!

Bad habits are hard to break. Cracking chewing gum drives me crazy like someone scratching a chalkboard (the birth of dry markers in classrooms?). Throwing cigarette butts from the car instead of putting them in the ash try! (How would litterers feel if someone threw used toilet paper inside their cars?) Bad talent who […]

Alcoholic Cerebellar Degeneration : Worse than putting a lamp shade on your head

Quit Smoking! You are choking the rest of us

Grandma Walton said something like, “If God intended people to smoke, He would have put chimney tops on our heads.”
I don’t remember much about The Waltons, but I do remember that phrase, because smoking is one of the worst things you can do to yourself. What about other people? Second-hand smoke is still being […]
