  • Although alcoholism can be treated and long-term sobriety obtained, the recovered person must realize that they do not have the ability to control their alcohol intake after completing treatment. In other words, even if an alcoholic has been sober for a long time and has regained health, he or she remains susceptible to relapse and must continue to avoid all alcoholic beverages. "Cutting down" on drinking doesn't work; cutting out alcohol is necessary for a successful recovery.
  • In 1932, Franklin D. Roosevelt promised the repeal of Prohibition if he was elected. Shortly after becoming president, Roosevelt legalized beer sales.
  • During the early years in American history, beers actually were reported to have health benefits, because sailors who drank it avoided scurvy.
  • One of the beer commercial's favorite celebrities was Billy Martin, former manager of the New York Yankees; what was not shown was how his life was cut short by a Detroit couple headed home after binge drinking at a local bar. As they were driving home, their truck slammed into a vehicle carrying Billy Martin. Billy's head went through the windshield, his neck was fractured and he was pronounced dead 23 minutes later.
