And I love that icon. It's the first time I've seen you use that one. At the mention of Irish whisky, I couldn't resist. *grins* The background of the icon is actually my family crest. Well, not exactly. Rather a funny story actually, my grandmother on my father's side never married... but if she had, that would be my family crest. ;P
If I may ask... is this a philosophical position, or are you allergic to alcohol, or is it something else? It's personal, but not so personal that I mind telling people. My father is an alcoholic and that made for some unhappy times in my childhood. He was never physically abusive, but he wasn't exactly the role model I was looking for either. And with these crazy statistics like, "An estimated 20-25% of sons and brothers of alcoholics become alcoholic" all over the place... I'm just being careful.
I'm not one of those people that runs around chastising others for drinking... it's just not for me.
