Beer is good, I've proven it. Submitted by Mark Hubbard on Tue, 2008-07-15 20:22.
I love beer. I've always had a beer every night while I watch the news, a tasty beer, not the pap produced for the populace, and then four or seven beers on a Friday night as I fume about the week. Unfortunately, my wife, lovely woman though she otherwise is, says she's not going to be married to a guy growing a beer pot, so over the last week I've substituted (are you sitting Peter?) apple juice in the place of beer. Up until this 'experiment' I was always a pretty constant 15 stone 10. Since the single week on the apple juice diet, I have shot up from 15 stone 10, to 16 stone 3!! I have changed nothing else, indeed, work-wise it's been a more than usually stressful week, so I've probably eaten less.
Superb. Could not have been a better result. Be warned.

Well you've typically got it all arse about kite again Elijah. Brandy is a digestive, you drink it after your meal (and in a balloon glass, please, making sure you burn off the spirit with the warmth from the palm of your hand first).
I thought you'd be the sort of chap to have known this already.
I know what you mean,
I know what you mean, Mark...various people were suggesting that the red wine before dinner was making me put on weight, so I, too, have changed.
Therefore I now have a brandy..(or two)... before dinner

I've made a decision, I'm
I've made a decision, I'm putting weight on, and even AFL is starting to look good on a glass of apple juice, so I'm back to the beer. To celebrate, the six o'clocker tonight will be that great dark from Yorkshire, a Black Sheep.
[I might've been on the juice, but I still had a good supply of beer in stock].
Philip, I suspect L. Ron was on the hard stuff.
Gregster, I agree my actions were bordering on the immoral. Now rectified.
The idea of it
Trading a greater value for a lesser one. Immorality or lack of ethics? (That's surely not you behind the L Ron garb?
)
This man has to be
This man has to be banished.
First he confesses to lacking the mental apparatus to appreciate AFL, then he admits to foregoing beer in favour of ... apple juice!
There have been some vile things said on this board, most of them from Robert Campbell, but this is the lowest. ;-/

the extra weight just comes from that new R. Hubbard head gear that you have taken to wearing.
