Just need to respond to those who feel that I "need a soapbox", etc.
I, however, have seen death caused by "just one little drink".....and I refer you to all the posts that mention how it makes them feel differently. That should point out why some of us "soap box" types have concerns about drinking.
Can nobody have fun drinking a soda ?
No more "soap box", but recognize you ARE IN FACT diminishing your thought process with one drink...ONE. I choose not to do that, and I choose to offer to young people at every chance to learn how to enjoy yourself with no artificial assistance, and to be careful with those who need to do that.
I do not criticize those who drink....I, as was the intent of my post and others, find fault with a joke being made of the direct cause of a death of someone close to me...not speaking of DRUNK driving..one drink, as all of you are admitting, will affect your brain. Do we really need help to enjoy ourselves ?
Sorry for "soap boxing" and will get out of your way
