As to the driving age in the UK, you made me curious, and seeing as I do
want to learn how to drive ASAP I looked it up; http://www.dvla.gov.uk/drivers/vehicle_cat_desc.htm
I really need something better to do with my time! ____________________ Do not fear death so much, but rather the inadequate life. |

My mother was telling me that when she was 5 years old, growing up in
Virginia, their maid used to send her and her little sister to the store to
buy her cigarettes - for a nickle a pack.
Itīs probably good that they wonīt sell them to 5 year olds anymore, but
itīd be nice if they were still 5 cents a pack ____________________ So Sayeth Me |

Everclear is either 180 or 190 proof.
which makes it 90-95% alcohol.
Rather strong stuff. ____________________ Sometimes I dream about dinosaurs shopping for cargo shorts at the Gap.

Yeah... mrrffcckking CA has the stiffest laws reguarding driving. You start
at 15 and a half, and an adult has to be with you. Then you get a full
license at 16, but you canīt drive friends around without an adult for 6
months, after that, you can have friends in the car alone with you, but not
late at night. You only finally get a real license at 17 (earliest). The
bureacrats are so proud, since accidents have dropped. Well, yeah, because
we canīt drive!!! Its ridiculous! And they want to make it stiffer... Sons
of bitches...
Of course, once you get a car, you are free to take the short drive down to
the land of milk and honey (Tiajuana) where you can get all the
fireworks/pot/crack/hard booze/cheap sex you want...
So I guess they -do- have somewhat of a reason for raising the age, but its
an indirect thing... ____________________ Piggy's got the Conch! |

Rogue, Maybe it was up to the states nefore the drinking age went up to 21.
I thought it was 18 here in Neew Orleans before they finally caved. As for
the 16 thing that was just something I heard.
Dev, Marlboro lights, 19 bucks a carton from switzerland...of course my
stuipd order still hasnīt shown up, but boy what a savings if it ever does! ____________________ It is only through the lack of sex that humanity derives the need for an

Really? 190 proof? I thought it was more like 150... but since Iīve only
heard it from other numb nuts...
You canīt drink that stuff straight... itīd burn your throat, literally... ____________________ Piggy's got the Conch! |

Word...I remember one night, in corpsschool no less, learning how to fix
people, we went out and drank a crapload of that Everclear junk, took like
seven or eight hits of acid...and then proceeded to attempt to light our
belches on fire.
Funny I was together enough to leave right before the cops arrived...ah, I
miss school. ____________________ In the valley of the Goats, the Goat Fucker is King |

Youīre thinking of Bacardi 151, which is the highest proof that you can get
in most states. I think that everclear is illegal in over half of the
country. :razz: ____________________ Sometimes I dream about dinosaurs shopping for cargo shorts at the Gap.

Oh man, everclear...ugh. I remember a friend of mine whose mom used to pick
it up from mexico for uh, medicinal purposes. We snagged one of her
pbottles one night and then never dd anything with it until one night when
I was feeling low and decided to start doing shots. I woke up with my
roommate and his girlfriend actually banging away on my back. they had
decided it would be a kind of no threat threesome or something. Iīm just
glad I hadnīt actually gotten drunk enough to hurl. ____________________ It is only through the lack of sex that humanity derives the need for an
