But I don't drink much alcohol these days, as my fiancee doesn't like the stuff, not even the smell of it. So I stick to Dr. Pepper/Mr. Pibb, root beer (any brand), and Arizona "Memory Mind Elixir" (tastes like sweetened grapefruit juice with green tea mixed in - supposedly has ginkgo biloba and other memory/mind-enhancing herbs in it). Oh yeah, and 3 cups of coffee every weekday morning. No other way to get through a workday.

If my girlfriend didn't like alcohol I think I'de give up the girl and not the drink.
As for that Dr. Pepper stuff....I think it must be some sort of acquired taste.
And is root beer = ginger beer? Or does it have alcohol in it?
I'm actually surprised (well more like completely staggered) by the amount of non drinkers.
Is that because your all young americans and you have that really oppresive drinking age?
Or is everyone just really old and completely out of that pub/club/bar/tavern/inn/bottle shop/21st birthday party/hotel/having a drink with mates on the porch/disco scene?
What do you people do after work?
