I am an only child. I don't believe in love. I like beer.
 I like to refurbish classic cars. I appeared on jeopardy once. I lived in a storage locker for 2 months. I am divorced. I am a recovering alcoholic. Drinking ruined my marriage. I like soda now.
I watched Jeopardy this evening, it sure was confusing, how'd you do when you were on? Not too bad.  Luckily I played better when I appeared on the show.  Those earnings help with refurbishing my classic cars.  It is not a cheap hobby.  What do you like to do in your spare time? You'll have to show me the cars some time, I love the look of old cars. I quite like beer tasting, but recently I've been trying to cut down. How is the refurbishment going by the way? Slow.  I'm having a hard time locating the missing back seat of the '65 Mustang.  The engine keeps stalling out as well.  A friend is coming over to help me this weekend.  How's it going cutting back on beer?  It was hard for me to quit but I feel so much better now that I have. Ah that's a shame, hopefully the piece will turn up soon, someone somewhere has got to have the right part. Might be costly though. It's going alright, been a steady process though. Do you have any tips to cutting it out completely? I'm debating going cold turkey but not sure if it's wise If you're committed to cutting it out completely then I like the cold turkey method.  If you can survive that you can survive anything.  Getting support from your parents or good friends will make it easier too.  You always reach out to me.  I would be happy to sponsor you.  I'll introduce you to the world of soda! I'll give it a try then if you think its a good idea. I've not got any siblings, but my parents are very supportive. Aha you'll have to give me some good recommendations for beer replacements  Well I do like a good Coke Zero but I know the fake sugars aren't good for me.  I'm trying to switch over to sparkling water.  It's soda-like.  It has the carbonation and that's what I'm really looking for.  La Croix is pretty good.  Can't go wrong with plain mineral water and a squirt of citrus.  Have you ever tried salted peanuts dropped inside a Pepsi can?  It's delicious.  I'll have one of those every now and again. I do like a good coke but you're right, sometimes the superficial sugars are worse than the real thing. That's probably the healthier option- I've heard some good things about La Croix, but I've not tried it out yet. I can't say I ever have, no. I've not heard of dropping a peanut in a Pepsi, might have to give it a go (provided you're not joking aha) No, it's a real thing.  Just be sure to drink about 1/3 of the soda before dropping them in.  Otherwise, the salted peanuts will make the soda explode.  Have you given any thought about signing up for those dating apps?   Hmmm, I'll try it then! I'll let you know what I think, hopefully I won't have any mento-in-cola-esqu mishaps. I've been debating it, but I'm still not certain. I'm a bit wary, I would much rather meet someone in person to get an idea of what they're like really, to make sure they aren't exaggerating for the appeal. How about you, have you been considering moving on? I think so.  It's been long enough since the divorce and I'm lonely.  I'm worried my sobriety might be an issue.  If you met someone in person and liked them, would you consider it to be an issue?
