From Practically Useless Information: Food & Drink by Norman Kolpas:
Robert Louis Stevenson took Guinness with him to the islands of Samoa.
Guinness has fewer calories than a glass of orange juice or skim milk.
"Mind your p’s and q’s" means "Mind your own business." The phrase came from an English pub keeper who would tell customers to mind their pints and quarts of beer instead of what anyone else might be doing.
