Liar, liar, pants on fire! The words still sting decades later. None of us want to be considered a liar and yet anyone that has ever drunk has probably also lied about it.

Its a simple thought (of course it is...its one of Hame's) but we don't often take the time to consider whether a sober life is better than a drunk one.
