Having .14 of an alcoholic doesn't make any sense

I'd say around 13% of this forum are alcoholics.

Forgive me but you ventured Pi, I merely interrupted such as being 3.14 or there about. What's your definition of Pi.

Whilst you are providing rational responses. What is the price for a pint of Guinness in Ireland. I don't have much money, but I'm sure I can afford one.

Excellent. 13% of how much.

Don't worry, I haven't thought through a conclusion for this thread, but we might just arrive at one. Hopefully.

If that is the price for a pint of guinness, then I won't be able to afford one. What's the chance of getting a free one.

If I wasn't a hypochondriac and have such a determined brain, I'd say I would have the potential to be an alcoholic.

Drinking is fun.

Well done. If the others were honest as you, then they won't have to go and bottle of whiskey down their trousers., under their hats etc.
