Yep, deathly allergic!
Last beer was August '76, it put me down, had a fever of 105° for 5 days, left me flat on my back for 2 months, doc said I was very fortunate to not have died, ...didn't go to him until the fifth day, he ran a bunch of tests, all came back - allergic reaction, 4 months before I could return to work, don't have to hit me in the head twice with a 2x4, I'll pass on the beer.
Thanks travcoman45 for the explanation, I'll try the water next time.
Just for the gee whiz file, anyone remember when Jesus healed Peter's mother-in-law of a fever (Mark 1:31), ...the miracle was she GOT up immediately and served them.
