Crack is smoked, not snorted.

That's in the subjunctive case, so it is actually "I wish I were cool" I just wanted to get that in before any of the other annoying wankers jump on it.

Fuck ya. Good to have a sense of humor! And just a wee bit of drunkeness....

Ah, the perfect threesome.

Red wine does stain.

not that one Viking isn't enough

*wetness* We could probably rope Frikadeller into this one; I think he is the only other Dane on the site.

Just when I was getting excited. Figures.

I'm glad I have a drink in my hand. Whew.

We are talking in circles. And congratulations on memorizing the Volstead Act. Freak.

Don't you? I have a lot of beer that needs drinking. It's been a shitty day. Go cry for me. tear

And just for clarity, the Prohibition law: After one year from the ratification of this article the manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors within, the importation thereof into, or the exportation thereof from the United States and all territory subject to the jurisdiction thereof for beverage purposes is hereby prohibited.

So I think what? The V-act didn't outlaw the consumption of alcohol (which is what you were talking about in the first place) "no person shall manufacture, sell, barter, transport, import, export, deliver, furnish or possess any intoxicating liquor except as authorized by this act.” It did not specifically prohibit the purchase or use of intoxicating liquors. this act is not what impacted the death of prohibition; it was the social changes going on at the time that rose up in reaction to the orginal pressures that caused Prohibition to come around. This pendulum seems to always occur in societies with many topics. We just can't seem to find the balance and stick with it.

No kidding. And remember when there was the flap about our female soilders having to wear coverings in the middle of the desert so as not to offend the delicate sensibilities of these men.

Wait a minute, the more I think about your statement the more I realize you may not have read a lot about this period in history. Alcohol sales were taken over by organized crime at this time, which was unanticipated by our government. These folks became fabulously weathy and soon were admired by regular folk. People who bootlegged or ran blind pigs were also sympathized with. As social mores loosened up in general (it was, after all, the roaring twenties) alcohol consumption became more socially acceptable. If there is one time in our history when social pressures did not contrain drug/alcohol habits, it was this time.

That's b/c the consumption and possession of alcohol was not illegal under prohibition laws.

We can't fix thousands of years of cultural beliefs by prosecuting one bunch of guys. Doesn't work here either.

Where was goal one? I missed goal one?

This is calm. Don't you have some engineers to go boss around?

let he who has never sinned cast the first... oh nevermind.

goals. We all gotta have goals.

Are you kidding? I highly doubt I could even get anyone to breed with me. You really think anyone would want my genes passed on? Why inflict that on an innocent human? BTW, I did win the "most likely to eat her own children" award in high school.

And don't forget those who stood by, filmed it on their cell phones, cheered on those who did the stoning, or helped to drag the girl out of her home. They certainly bear some responsibility, don't they?

I assume she had breasts.

I am having sushi for lunch.
