Water vs Wine

Water vs Wine

As Ben Franklin said: "In wine there is wisdom, in beer there is freedom, in water there is bacteria."

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer, tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:
Water = Poop

Wine = Health

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of sh*t.

I think the guy who owned him before me introduced beer to Bay, LOL. I had a beer on the trailer wheel-well one day, I looked over and Bay had knocked it over and drinking it. He's been given beer ever since! All those hops, barley, etc...all his favorites!! Besides, friends don't let friends drink alone. (or something like that )

Bay's ready for your visit Mandy.

So funny!!!

One summer we went fishing at this pond in some field. Well, we saw a horse up by the truck, but didn't think anything about it. An hour or so later this horse came walking up and I swear smelled like BBQ. Couldn't understand why his breath smelled like that.

When we got ready to go home, the bag of BBQ Fritos that were in the truck were gone....LOLOL Next time we rolled the windows up...LOLOL

Oh Janet - Yes horses are soooo curious, just like kids. I had my "old" truck one day in Bay's pasture unloading wood shavings for his stall. Idiot me left my truck windows down. Seeing Bay sticking his head into the truck I just didn't think nothing about it. Well......Getting back into the truck to go home I see he muched a huge hunk outta the steering wheel cover. From that day on I ROLL UP ALL MY WINDOWS.

Plus I put all my tack away...I had an awesome pair of reins chewed and munched on my my friends horse. It's never ending with these guys, sheesh!!

Fritos! That's funny. I bet that horse needed a beer after that snack. LOL

I would guess from their large size, relative to us, that beer guzzling horses don't get drunk on a bottle of their favorite ale. Not surprised that they like it. Bet it's not on the standard diet you'd get from the vet, though!

[katepoet]

I wondered how much beer is safe for horses or if it is a common thing to share one with them so I googled "beer safe for horses" I found a song, and lots of fun sites about horses and about beers and ales. Nothing about how quickly horses metabolize alcohol but a lot more fun!
