Just to celebrate ~ One of life's little pleasures ~ A simple poem
At that late hour
With no time for subtlety
He bought a pitcher

Thing of the Day: Libbey Munich 7-Piece Beer Set
an experiment
shockingly ineffective
sensibly repealed
With the damage done
It takes decades to restore
Our lost treasure
“Do not drink and drive”
Is an excellent message.
“Do not drink” is not.

You can read all about Prohibition in the United States in Wikipedia. Luckily for us it ended 75 years ago today when Utah became the 36th state to ratify the 21st amendment to the constitution. It was a spectacular failure. We should learn from the experience.
I’m going to have a beer today to celebrate. And perhaps some nice whiskey too. Cheers!
