Our drinks, our selves

As I always do whenever I’m on vacation in the U.S., I infused myself with periodicals from the intellectually stimulating to the butt-wipe bathroom reading.

Q: What does a woman’s favorite alcoholic beverage say about her? — Bryan H., MS

A: This is even less reliable than astrology, but here goes: The women I know who prefer beer are generally down-to-earth and easy to please.

Just kidding. The whiskey drinkers are the serious, mature women who make decisions fast and follow through. In this case, the decision is to get drunk.
