for nearly 25 years I drank at least 6 to 18 beers a day...some days topped that off with a pint of brandy....few years back gave it all up...havent looked back.
his 2 night a beer habit,
It takes him 2 nights to down a beer, and they consider that an alkie?!?!?
He is 6'2, 250 lbs., 60 years old and he has been doing it for 20 or more years.
I never would have believed it if I hadn't seen it.

oops.
What is a safe level of drinking?
For most adults, moderate alcohol use--up to two drinks per day for men and one drink per day for women and older people--causes few if any problems. (One drink equals one 12-ounce bottle of beer or wine cooler, one 5-ounce glass of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof distilled spirits.)
Heavy drinking can actually increase the risk of heart failure, stroke, and high blood pressure, as well as cause many other medical problems, such as liver cirrhosis.

When back home, I would drink 2 to 3 beers each night.

I know a guy that drinks 30-50 cans(12 oz) of Miller High Life each night, every night. And usually some whiskey, vodka or 'shine as well. He also smokes 2 cartons of Camel wides per week.

That's 7000 calories, that guy must have an amazing metabolism, not to mention the fact that you'd have to have one hell of a stretchable stomach to get 5 gallons beer in there.
If i drink beer i can easily put away a case so its something i dont do often. I might have a mixed drink every other day and probley have one to many once a week. Use to only drink about 3 times a year but now i have alot of time off.
I dont drink Daily. I meet at the same bar, with the same friends, every friday. I usually have about 12-15 rolling rocks, and about 8-12 Jaeger bombs.
Damn!
Haven't you heard?

Yes, it can creep up on you.
Booze can cloud your thought process. Almost found out the hard way.

Enjoy the show. Smart money says he'll be dead in 5 years if he keeps on to the end (assuming the heart attack or stroke doesn't kill him). If he does stop he's still shortened his life at least 10 years. Too soon old, too late smart.
Don't misunderstand. I'm not wishing this on him. But it is what it is.
Perhaps to him living longer without those habits isn't really "life."

Yes, I drink too much.
That is the only acceptable answer in the nanny state that we have become.
Do I drink six beers a night? Um, no. Can I? Sure, but "6 beers" to some folks is "Six Bud Lights", and to others its "six stouts". If I have five wobbly-pops during dinner at my local place I'm good to go...I could have ten, as I walk to the place in 3 minutes from my door but...being at work at 6 or 7 am after 6-10 beers ain't fun any more
