[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't drink-- family history of alcoholism and enough ugly incidents in college to make me realize I'm not immune to those genes-- but if you read through this entire thread, as I must confess I have, it is rather evident that the people who imbibe are more fun. Non-drinkers, may I suggest you work on witty rejoinders? Insults, sarcasm, and hand-wringing don't count. Please! Convince us that it is possible to have fun, and be fun, sober![/quote]

The fact that people cannot have fun without alcohol is one of the first signs of alcoholism.

We're here debating using logic and facts. This is not supposed to be a joke. The folks trying to say there's nothig wrong with breaking the law and putting your children (and others) in danger need a reality check. And when it happens it will be too late.

I'm not against alcohol but it does have a time and place. On the street, at night, in the dark while you're watching over children is definitely not he est plac for it. [/quote]

1.  I don't think it is against the law.  Any open container law (as far as I know) is limited to open containers while driving.  Counties may have different laws, but I am not aware of a state-wide law.

2.  If you are not against alcohol, WHAT is the time and place?  When your kids are gone for the weekend and you are sitting alone in the basement away from sharp objects?  I mean seriously?  If a halloween party amongst friends is not the time and place for one drink, what is?[/quote]
