I would have never guessed this of someone as old as you Steve.

I too have never aquired a taste for beer ... I was raised in honky tonk's from 6 to 16 in Waco and Houston, Texas.

I was drug around by my mother and step father. It was legal in Texas to be a child in a bar as long as your parents were with you.

I would suck up on Dr Pepper and play shuffle board by nyself, shoot the bear and look at the Ham's beer sign and wonder why people would eat a pickeled pig's foot.

I thank the great state of California for having a law against drinking unless you were at least 21 ... I was 17, 18, 19. 20 in the Navy in those days.

Glad to meet another non-beer drinker.
