Post Warning---X-Mas Partys


Howdy all-
Went to a major company X-Mas party this last weekend, my wife and I were drinking diet cola, there was of course at the party eggnog and something here in Canada we call moose milk, it is simular to eggnog but is made with icecream,milk,secrect ingredents and various unknown mixtures of alcohol and jet fuel I am sure he he, which if you drink it you can not taste the alcohol, but you will know you have been drinking when it sneaks up behind you and slaps your head to the floor.

Now they had two big punch bowls of moose milk, one clearly marked non-alcohol, about a half an hour before we were leaving,having my fill of diet cola, I decided to try the non-alcohol moose milk, as the first glass tasted good, I had two.
We had our jackets on and ready to leave, when two peace officers I knew came in, in uniform, they asked, which was good of them, if we needed a ride, I said no, because neither of us were drinking and the wife was driving.
We got to discussing their new electronic breathalizers that they carry, since they never got much of a chance to test them, we volunteered to test them as did a freind that was obviously hammered.
the freind blew and failed, no surprise, as when the wife blew into the breathalizer and passed, but when I blew, not once but three times- I FAILED.
Now these breathalizers do not give you the actual reading. as these are mobile breathalizers,if you are driving and fail then they take you in.

Now, my point here is although I was not even going to drive, I had consumed alcohol, being a non drinker now, that shocked me, and also I am going in to do my blood tests late next week for the Pegasys program, it will be doubtful that the alcohol will show up after that amount of time, but what if?

You do not have to be a rocket scientist to see that some idiot spiked the non-alcoholic moose milk, which happens quite often everywhere, I am told.

So watch those punches and eggnogs that are supposed to be non-alcohol they may be bad for your health and/or land you in the drunk tank with your drivers lic confiscated.
Happy Holidays, be Well +

Neil got busted?? heheh....

But seriously, there is probably a law against people drugging and poisoning each other especially without consent.

I'm sorry to hear that happened to you, Neil. Thanks for sharing and helping others be more alert to the problem.

Too bad you didn't even get to relish a little indulgence........ I know this shouldn't have happenend but I doubt that small amount will effect your blood tests over a long period of time. Your enzymes may rise a tad over the next few days and then the mighty liver will begin the healing once again. What was your name??? Oh yeah, Hepperman!!!

That used to happen at high school parties, you'd think grown-ups would know better! This is crude but some people are idiots!!

Neil,.
bad joke.....make sure you let your doctor know...i played around with alchol and blood test and they did make my sgots, and sgpts rise....just for a few then they went down...if you continue drinking they would stay up....but if they come back elevated at least you will know why.....sometimes its not safe going out...

Howdy-
Hey JJ HI- I do not know if you can even call that a joke, some people just do not think- there are literly hundreds of medications out there that can have adverse reactions to alcohol, also a lot of elderly people drink the non-alcohol punches, eggnoggs etc, and many may have conditions on top of medication that can cause bad reactions.
I beleive that there is a recent law concerning drugging people WES, its attached to the Date Rape Drugging cases can not recall what it intales though.

Also I think I remember a Doc telling me that they can detect alcohol in the system for weeks in some blood tests Jeannie,but as you say my liver will work overtime to eliminate that poison now that it is getting used to not having to be poisoned every weekend.
Happy Holidays, Be Well +
