Diagnosed diabetic in 1988, I quit alcohol completely. I really loved beer and enjoyed all the other good stuff (Grand Marnier, for instance), but once I shut that door, it greatly improved my life. What I particularly enjoy now, especially in this season, is not waking up with a hangover.
I was surely not Celiac, what with all the beer from age 17 on, but when the ³lite² beers came in, it was an odd phenomenon for me. Just one of those would give me an instant headache. --Dave Shugarts On 12/21/07 10:20 AM, "Russ Dearmore" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ask not had > > Russ Dearmore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> I love the look the waitress gives me when I had for their Celiac menu..... >> Ha >> >> [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >>> Hey Russ, my wife and one my daughters have celiac! >>> Sure makes travel and dining out an adventure!! >>> >>> best of luck with yours!! >>> >>> >>> tf >>> btw, ETOH free for 23 days now >>> (picked one helluva time of year to dry out) >>> >>> >>>> > Good man......
