We just recently dumped that noise here in WA state. This Friday, we can FINALLY buy booze in teh grocery stores - any day of the week. No more going to state liquor stores.

Cause what else is there to do, while sitting under your patio umbrella to stay outta the torrential downpour that has disrupted your BBQ desires, but sip finely aged bourbonz! (or <i>any</i> aged bourbonz, for that matter)

OH sure, make me feel guilty now for jerb killing.

Actually, I'm pretty sure all our major grocery stores here in WA are unionized. They auctioned off the state stores to private persons, so one wonders if those jerbs are still mostly there.

Plus I do have to admit that here in my ruralish little berg, we had the coolest state store that everybody referred to as Two Old Ladies Liquor Store. A mouthful indeed if one has imbibed to excess. And they, likewise, kept the best Scotch and bourban on the shelf. OH <i>GEEZE</i>, guilt now ensues.

I'm not sure a guy named "Brawley" is the ideal messenger for increasing the availability of alcoholic beverages.

Can't we get them <em>all</em> to jump in old Chargers, and weld the doors shut... the windows too?

California sells booze 24/7/365. But they <i>really</i> need it out here. I was thrilled to be suddenly able to buy a 6 pack on Sunday after suffering under the lash of Massachusetts blue laws for years.

Ha ha, joke's on them! Democrats are all Mooslim sharia-law followers nowadays, so no drinking will occur!
