"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

From above linky.

The legal requirements are different for proving public intoxication than for proving a person is driving under the influence, she said. The standard is not whether a person has a blood alcohol content of 0.08 percent; it's whether the person poses a threat to themselves or others.

I can't believe they don't even have to do a test. The other think I'm wondering is if they can do this to a private club. If not, it's pretty much in effect saying only the richer people have a right to get their party on.

Didn't we try this before and it didn't work out so well?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dude, seriously?

Seriously!

Mini apple pies might help to ease the pain.

If I were nice, I'd get right on this. Shame.

As a woman who has given birth, I can honestly say that that's one view of me that I would not allow to be captured by camera, much less commemorated in bronze.

I haven't given birth, and no one gets to cast my va-jay-jay in bronze.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hey, if we say va-jay-jay bojangeler a whole lot, do you think Rio might suddenly appear?

Do we need to say it 3 times while turning around in front of our computers in the dark?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

The State of Victoria is the only place in Australia that retains the criminal charge of public drunkenness. A review has just suggested that this be decriminalised, though it also recommends that this be accompanied by increasing the availability of drying-out facilities in the city.

Well, the article is about the cops going into a bar and arresting people for being drunk based solely on their observations. To make it doubly stupid, the guy interviewed who was arrested was at a hotel bar.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Commission officials are defending the actions, noting that being drunk in public is against the law and that any place licensed to serve booze is, by law, a public place....

"They feel like its violating their rights. How can you give somebody a public intox? That's what you go to a bar for," said Todd Williams, 27, a supervisor at Boston's Restaurant and Sports Bar

Reminds me of Ron White's routine: "I wasn't drunk in public. I was drunk in a bar. They threw me into public! Arrest them!"

Huh.

Actor Charlie Sheen refuses to accept the official explanation behind the terrorist atrocities of September 11, 2001, and believes the US government covered up what really happened. Conspiracy theorist Sheen claims New York City's Twin Towers fell as the result of a "controlled demolition." Talking on US radio program The Alex Jones Show on the GGN network, he said, "It seems to me like 19 amateurs with box-cutters taking over four commercial airliners and hitting 75 per cent of their targets, that feels like a conspiracy theory. It raises a lot of questions. A couple of years ago, it was severely unpopular to talk about any of this. It feels like from the people I talk to, and the research I've done and around my circles, it feels like the worm is turning." Sheen also cast doubt over the plane that smashed into the side of the Pentagon in Washington DC. He added, "Just show us how this particular plane pulled off these maneuvers... It is up to us to reveal the truth. It is up to us because we owe it to the families, we owe it to the victims, we owe it to everyone's life who was drastically altered, horrifically, that day and forever. We owe it to them to uncover what happened."

Huh.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Ron White = very funny.
