in NC wine and beer can be sold after noon on Sundays. So you can leave church and swing by the Piggly Wiggly to nab a 6-pack.
Maybe the lawmakers just didn't want folks to be drunk during the sermon.
Jayne, you'll scare the women.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
We have 4 titanium sporks. You could easily spork out an eye with one. However, it would need to be deliberate, accidental sporking might be harder

btw last night and today, I have cleared all my shows off the DVR.
I think my big activity for the afternoon may be a shower.

NYS has no wine in grocery stores, just wine product.
You can sell wine in a grocery store IF the wine section has its own separate entrance, but in the city at least, space is such a premium that the net effect is no wine in grocery stores. (When Whole Foods first opened in Columbus Circle, they had a wine store, but because they're in the basement there was no way for them to build in a separate entrance so they had to close it down. TJ's has a separate wine store about two doors down from the regular grocery store.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's so nice out, and I haven't done anything with my day yet, so I'm thinking about walking to my parents' for dinner. It's like 5 miles, but I could bail out early and get on a bus or something.

I should open a window, thanks for reminding me, Jesse.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
In AK, the liquor/beer/wine has to be separate, which leads to a lot of partitioned 7-11s and such. But, booze can be sold until at least midnight every day, and maybe longer. I don't remember. Bars stay open untol whenever the city tells them to shut down, which is currently 3:30 a.m. in Fairbanks. Used to be 5 a.m. Good times.
In MSP, liquor stores close at 8 p.m. M-Th, 10 p.m. Fri-Sat, and don't open at all on Sundays. You can buy 3.2 beer at the grocery or convenience stores at pretty much anytime, IIRC. Bars can now close at 2 a.m., when it used to be 1 a.m.
When I lived in Springfield, IL, there were a few drive-through liquor stores. I boggled.
Neither of my parents were big drinkers as I was growing up. I blame my peers for my hard-and-fast love of alcohol. Yes.

I don't think that has made it upstate, yet, Jessica. Interesting.
