why do so many talking head women, especially at Fox, look like they are hitting the club right from work? At 6am no less!

Saw Kelly yesterday and was floored that she wpould dress as she does.

I guess sex sells because frankly that is about all I thought about while she was selling her Fox agenda.

There is a way to dress attractive without looking like you are trying to attract men. (nicely stated, no? )

Also in football. Notice the number of women interviewing the players and the coaches.

This was my entire point at the onset and what was challenged.

I wasn't BUT it has gone there.

Anyone can stop after one, two or three drinks if they so choose. For some it is harder to stop than for others. In these cases abstinence may be preferable. Personally I could care less.

I do know that any model that suggests that there is but one answer is full of shit and that is before they even start with the religious bull shit.

In cases of severe physical withdrawal symptoms metering out the last bottle will be better than no detox at all--if one can manage it.

In most cases drinking the 'last bottle' will just mean another night drunk. And not the last night either.

For real drunks, moderation does not work. But I get that it's common for people to really really want it to....

Moderation is frequently unachievable. I answered your question. For alcohol, supervised medical detox. No cold turkey.

You have no understanding of the problem. Whether your ignorance is willful or not is the only thing still open for discussion.
