Well here's a little different answer anyway... when I feel like drinking I smoke some pot instead I mean it's illegal in most states so it may not be a great solution, but at least it's not as bad for your health
You know, that's helped me in the past too. I really get pissed off about the hate towards weed. I mean, not to invoke a typical liberal utility argument here but how many liver failures does it cause, how about car accidents, fights, missed work, domestic violence etc. etc. etc. About the only thing it ever caused me to do is down a Large box of Frosted Flakes with a Gallon of Milk and watch something like Conan the Barbarian.
