One drink? Need to consider what you are drinking, timing and the situation. A shot of Tequila on an empty stomach will have a different effect than a glass of Pinot Noir with dinner. Read @MichaelApstein's article at winereviewonline.com/misguid…

Here is an excellent column explaining why drinking wine in moderation with meals is NOT the same, health-wise, as tossing down shots of Tequila. FYI, this column was rejected by the New York Times, which is committed to neo-Prohibitionism. winereviewonline.com/misguid…

I’m about 100 pages into “The Last of His Kind,” @ByMcCullough’s book on Kershaw. It’s a real pleasure to read and a sportswriting clinic for any young journalists.
