Beer, Wine & Spirits - July 2007

I'm turning 21 soon and here's what most people ask me when they hear that: "Are you looking forward to drinking?" Or, "What are you gonna drink first?" It really annoys me because I have never drank alcohol and don't really have a desire to. I'm sure I will eventually, but honestly it's not that important to me. I guess this sounds strange considering that a lot of people these days love alcohol, but someone in my family was an alcoholic and caused a lot of trouble before they got help. So I want to be very cautious when I do start drinking. I never want to be an alcoholic. Now my question is, how can I kindly explain to people that it's not a big deal to me to start drinking, without sounding like I'm judging people who do like to drink?

Anyone know specifically what happens when you attend a sporting event or party and you drink like 25 beers in a relatively short time frame. I mean, I seem to manage just fine but often wonder what is happening to internal organs like kidney/liver etc. Obviously Im required to stay in shape etc due to profession but have always wondered about this.

Any insightful responses would be appreciated

Mine's scotch whiskey. Not sure why, I guess because my father always drank it.

Thanks! Ten points to whoever decides to be creative and describe the taste of your favorite as well. ;)

Also, if you have a specific type of wine within the "red" or "white" category that you can recommend, that'd be great too! Thanks!

I have heard that Alcohol is sometimes Called Spirits. Does this Only refer to Whiskey and other Hard Alcohol or Does it Refer to Beer as Well?
Why is Alcohol called Spirits?

Why does rum affect you in different ways than beer. For instance, it seems like rum can give you a different buzz than beer.

I'm very new to wine, and all I know is that I don't like reds, and Riesling is the only kind I've tried and liked. And I'm very picked about the brands on those.

Suggestions on other kinds of wines I might like?
