He commented that he would expect something like this more in South Carolina (which it couldn't because a Confederate flag was not involved), I reminded him that we were talking about MAINE. I lived there for eight years and there is NOTHING sophisticated about Maine. Ayuh.<br />FULL DISCLOSURE: Despite it all, I would love to return there to live. Besides the harsh winters (and a sophistication vacuum) it is a truly beautiful place.Al Penwasserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052950809151897315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-75087707340194020122015-07-07T17:11:30.068-04:002015-07-07T17:11:30.068-04:00An interesting follow-up to your story about the m...An interesting follow-up to your story about the most drunk state-my data shows that in March 2015, Nevada moved ahead of Arizona on the list of drunk states..beer sales in Reno spiked in the second quarter of 2015 and video footage from liquor store security cameras show a certain ferret-faced fascist allegedly responsible for the additional consumption.DiscConnectedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07013919800637508392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822869016413307981.post-92025096586965534322015-07-07T17:04:26.299-04:002015-07-07T17:04:26.299-04:00a regulation covering setting off an explosive dev...<i>a regulation covering setting off an explosive device on your head while drunk? </i><br /><br />I'd say that's Darwinian thoery in action...DiscConnectedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07013919800637508392noreply@blogger.com
