You know how friends who drink and have their faces all flushed red, and people remarked they have great blood circulations? Well think again.

Well so far I have drank wine, whiskey, vodka, tequila, beer..and in all combinations and kinds - and my prior thoughts is I have bad circulation, one cannot tell I have been drinking besides the occasional tipsy walking. So now, I am relieved and relooked at my friends who are often flushed red - besides a sure tell-tale sign to the cops if you drink and drive, you are also more likely to get your gullet killed.
