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.

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.

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.

Ron White = very funny.

wow, I didn't know Charlie Sheen was a tinhat.

He's been drinking Oliver Stone's kool-aid.

I need to go to bed, but don't wanna. I am four.

It doesn't help that I'm already going to be late because I'm dropping off stuff for work. It's like telling me I can sleep in.

Stoopid sinuses.

Stoopid brain.
