Fermi! Fermi! They Did It Again!

Just thought I’d let Fermi know the Georgia Senator who sponsored the Sunday alcohol sales bill withdrew it because he realized he couldn’t get it passed out of the Georgia Senate Regulated Industries and Utilities Committee, whatever that is.

There's a certain charm involved in living in a backwater state. I'm going to get me a Sunday still and put it next to the herb garden I'm going to put on the patio. Rosemary infused hooch!

Can you make Crown Royal in a home still?

I'm dissapointed. You said "herb garden," and naturally I thought…

Made me laugh Thomas. Herbs meant what you "thought" back when I had hair and none of it was grey.

Heh. At first I thought this was going to be about Tech finally winning a basketball game. I was there -- it was fun!

*sigh* I am not surprised. We aren't going to get rid of our antiquated alcohol laws until we get a governor who drinks.

I found out the hard way last Sunday that the restaurants cannot serve you a beer until 12:30pm. I did not know that. I had to nurse a glass of water for 30 minutes before I could get my beer so as to not be drinking before the entire city's sermons were finished, or something. It seemed arbitrary and unnecessary. And it cost the restaurant a sale, because I probably would have had two beers if I hadn't spent half an hour drinking the free water.

Back in the day -when I was married -my ex would take the kids to Sunday School, drop them off there and then head to the local Moose where he (along with a goodly number of other locals) would have "Mass at the Moose" with "Fr. Paul" (one of the locals) officiating and there, over a couple cool brews, they would solve the world's problems of that day in an hour -if I wasn't going to church that day -and then he'd go pick the kids up. If I was going to church, he's stay much longer and they would dig into more of the world's problems and "intelligent" resolution. If they hadn't had Sunday Sales then, I think the ex would have never survived.
Home brewed Crown Royal, Dave? Wonder how much space one would need to make something like that?

only in states with blue laws.

Dave - That may be why you HAVE grey hair.... back to the herbal medicine :-)

I am amazed at any attroney who isn't a total pothead, pill feak or alcoholic. Job stress is tough.
