Do you drink? Do you smoke?

Yeah, drinking in Europe is totally different than here in the States.

When my dad was in the Air Force we'd joke that if you old enough to reach the bar, they'd serve you, but you know there wasn't a stigma and it wasn't ABUSED. That's the big thing here versus Europe is the ABUSE of alcohol. We saw Italian truckers who would have a little wine mixed with quite a bit of water. no problem.

American's seem to do everything to the EXTERME and thus we have to over-drink.
