In the uber-egalitarian sphere, drinking age laws are “ageist” ... Phooey on that.
If Trump chooses me as his running mate, I will push for a drinking age of 18 and a voting age commensurate with the age required for office, in the case of President, age 35.
And the statement is, "Look at me! I'm an idiot!"
I have a cousin, who is an attorney in Ithaca. Her dad (my uncle) was a professor at Cornell. Maybe I should suggest he retain her.
Or smoke
Just like sestbelt/helmet laes.
The nationwide 18-year-old drinking age was proposed by Ronald Reagan's Secretary of Transportation, Elizabeth Dole, and was signed into law by Reagan.
Figgers.
Yeah, let’s lower the age so there can be more drunks out there killing our loved ones. Stupid is as stupid does. I’d like to see it raised to 121.
Wasn't that Reagan?
I dunno. I suppose so. I wasn’t sure if I was correct in the first place.
why do govt get away with putting limits on people who are 1. of voting age...2. of driving age..3. able to get married and have abortions without parents permission...and 4. able to or forced to be in the military and be prepared to kill people...

The Chariot.
The Chariot was the name of the restaurant at the bottom of Dryden Road, in a basement level store.
Best pizza in the world.
Just found out that the Chapter House burned to the ground last April. Royal Palms closed. Dunbars closed.
Sigh.
