When i returned to San Diego in late 1967
It seemed to me that many people in their 20s, were drinking
MD 20/20 has an alcohol content that varies by flavor from 13% to 18%. Originally, 20/20 stood for 20 oz at 20% alcohol. Yes one bottle would get one average person quite drunk.
Loganberry & Thunderbird
Thunderbird wines were soon publicly categorized as gas station-worthy wines — cheap and boozy but not exactly high quality.
loganberry wine gained popularity in the 1950s and 1960's, although it was never a “high class” wine.
I never drank wine & i never will.
My story :
I never talked to this person as a young teenager, but i was with my Grandfather who was talking to him.
This man was at least millionaire, maybe several times over.
His money was rationed to him, an Executor at the Bank paid for a room above a bar, but this guy slept mostly under the, docks at the Freight Train Station, all the bums slept there.
This guys food was paid for, where ever he decided to eat.
Any suits that were bought for him, he sold & bought wine.
All he had to do was live a upstanding life & quit drinking wine & he could control his own wealth.
He stayed a wino, for as long as i lived in Connecticut, so i don't know what happened to him.
He preferred his wine to being wealthy, when i saw that, i decided to stay away from wine.
I drank cheap beer back in the late 60s, how about some
