When it comes to symbolizing freedom and the spirit of '76, I do think there's a better American flag. With all due respect to the stars and stripes, I prefer the yellow Gadsden flag with the coiled rattlesnake and the defiant Don't Tread on Me motto. The meaning of Old Glory can get mixed up with the rights and wrongs of the perpetually new-and-improved government. The meaning of Don't Tread on Me is unmistakable. There's also an interesting history behind this flag. And it's intertwined with one of American history's most interesting personalities, Ben Franklin.
True or false- alcohol can pass directly into the bloodstream from mouth or stomach. kgb answers Â» Health & Body Â» Health & Fitness Â» True or false- alcohol can pass directly into the bloodstream from mouth or stomach.

I followed the Arkansas State Police guide of 1 drink per hour. Alcohol begins absorbing into the blood stream as soon as it enters the mouth, but most alcohol is absorbed through the small intestine. Until the alcohol has passed through the small intestines and into your blood stream, it really has not entered your system in such a way that it will affect you or your BAC. Before alcohol gets to your small intestine, it must pass through your stomach by the process of digestion.
