Lexington South Carolina Real Estate

Chip (My Husband) was quick to email me this breaking news. His subject line was he told me so. Great! Another excuse to drink more beer is what I needed from the media to aid him in his occasional indulgence. LOL

The University of Wisconsin told doctors at the American Medical Association confrence in Orlando, Florida that A pint of Guinness stout may have the same impact in improving blood circulation as a low dose of aspirin. The experts believe that in addition to the anti-clogging qualities of alcohol, some ingredients in Guinness can actually slow deposits of cholesterol in the blood. You can read the full story here.

Chip now has a 12 pack of Guinness stout on the grocery list and he threw the aspirins away. By my calculations that 12 pack should last 12 days. I reality I don't give it a week.

Our Husbands told us so!

To my gifted friends on Active Rain. This stumped me.
At first I thought it was another math thing.
I did this several times using different numbers in odds and evens.
If you can figure out how she does it please let me know.

I just looked at the number and she still got it!

This will drive you crazy!
