Strict orders to stay home in bed for several days and for us to avoid contact with others for a few days. The doc says I should be fine for Disney but we have a scrip for antibiotics just incase I show signs of the all too common ear infection. Whheeee

Sangria is not permitted? I don't get it.

The Maui Liquor Commission, in their infinite wisdom, outlawed pitchers of beer in bars.

Purpura is like a build a bear as she is cute, cuddly, and would not hurt anything except maybe SGs, lol. It is the first tme in a while that I had company in the house. Have a regular on me, lol.

And I should stop teasing him about his SGT, lol.

Wow, didn't realize that they STILL had blue laws!!

I remember when I was in South Carolina once, the local police shut down a Ice Cream place on a sunday, because they had a pinball machine on. I guess it was part of a old blue law about gamblining devices on sundays, the whacky part was that he didn't serve alcohol! But I guess the law was written that any establishment that serves refreshments was subject to it.

I used to have a web site bookmarked that had all the strange laws for various states still on the books, I'll have to look for it.

That almost sounds like the bar owners can make more money by selling individual beers, that the pitchers! But of course, THAT would have noting to do with it...Right??? RIGHT???

My son lives in Tennessee, and you have to buy liquor only at "Package Stores" and they are closed on Sunday. I don't know about bars, though.

Yeah, the used to have that in Georgia. and if you wanted to buy liquor, you had to find a "red dot"

That referred to a liquor store. The rules were interesting, the store HAD to have a large red "dot" painted on the outside of the building, visible on all outside walls. Inside the dot was the state liquor license number. And there coulld only be one enterence to the store that sold the alcohol. If the store sold anything else (soda, chips, etc.) there had to be a seperate enterence to get that merchandise. And you could not buy the alcohol from the "other" side of the store!

I think they have gotten rid of some of those laws. (I havn't been to Georgia in a while!)(other than to fly over!)

It's like that in TN, too. The liquor stores sell only liquor, and it's just stacked in boxes in the aisles, no fancy posters or neon signs. It's all very serious. :( kinda makes you feel like you're doing something bad.
