Drinking a case of beer a week gives you brain damage

[bjgreen]

This Yahoo! News article (http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=571&ncid=751&e=1&u=/nm/20040414/hl_nm//health_drinkers_dc) claims that having 100 drinks a month may give you brain damage.

I don't know about you guys, but I average around a case a week and I don't consider that heavy drinking. I know this is another medical survey that probably doesn't mean much, but I was just curious what you guys thought on the matter.

you know...first step is always denial..... :P

i don't drink...but i can think of a good evidence to back up that research

[homer] lisa, you and your crazy ideas, beer kills brain cells, bart is a vampire...now let's go back to that place...where our...beds and TV...is.

me know that no be true! Me drink all time! No brrrrain damage in me head. :D

I thought I had read research that said having two drinks a day was good for you. According to this article having aproximately 3 drinks a day will give you brain damage. I wish the researchers would make up their minds!!!

Personally, I think if you are drinking a case of beer a week you have more pressing matters that need to be addressed. Like your Alcoholism... for starters...

Isn't it wine thats good for you, not beer? I generally try to avoid stuff that brains my damage.

Got/Beer Gut? I doubt if three or four beers per day would destroy my brain but I would be seriously concerned about my gut.

I thought drinking was a mandatory course in college?

First stage of alcoholism is blacking out, contrary to popular belief (don't think that because you blacked out one night, you're now an alcoholic -- these are indications)... and especially for those people who think that drinking by yourself makes you an alcoholic. Shall I continue? :P

Stage 2: Loss of control after the first drink (weak sign of dependence)
Stage 3: Regular morning drinking (strong sign of dependence)
Stage 4: Choice between life or death

Do you consider a case 12, 18, 24, or the mighty 30?

case = 30

We've (my friends and I) have always called everything under that by it's number of beers ("I'm gonna go get a 24 pack..")
