    Bring a bucket

    Write down the name of each drink you take throughout the night and watch the writing become progressively more illegible.

    drink responsibly and please pass out next to a homeless woman before you drive....

    by doing this you could make her feel accepted and save a few lives...

    you I find one thing odd ......correct me if I'm wrong please, and do not take this as an insult, in the US you can buy a gun at 18, drive at 16, but drink at 21 ?

    (in no way is this meant to be political)


    BTW enjoy your night out like others have said don't drive or get into a car with someone who has been drinking. Sometimes don't trust your DD. I was working on a case where the guy was out partying he had a DD. The DD drank "only two pitchers", so the guy who was out to have fun drove home got nailed DWI, odley enough so did the DD or shal I call him DDD ( drunk,designated,driver)

    Correction, you can buy a rifle/shotgun at 18.. non conceilable, and 21 to purchase a hand gun, driveing at 16 is to early for most young kids.. and at 21 is when your brain starts to realize right from wrong, actually its not until 25 that your brain learns reason and makes correct decisons.... according to studies :D

    So go have fun just don't drive, but at this point your already home and hung over legally for the first time :)

    It wouldn't be a coming of age if you didn't get arrested, just don't drive.

    I vote public urination or lewd behavior as a fine start.

    Good luck, it's all downhill from here.

    I laugh at the fact one can serve in the armed forces... return home and still not be old enough to legally drink.... seems **** backwards to me

    Gun laws are by state. I know several states allow handgun purchases at 18. Ditto for driving laws - I got my "permit" at 15 and a half. Several states are as late as 17 for a permit.

    And not being able to make decisions until 25 sounds like bull to me. I'm not saying YOU'RE wrong but the studies are suspect. There may be societal reasons that people aren't "fully mature" until 25 but there's no way a 21 or even 18 year old can't have the ability to fully distinguish between right and wrong and "make correct decisions."
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    well the number of people who serve is the minority compared to under 21'ers who don't... I agree they should be able to and they do, but if we made an exception for military soldiers we would have a riot on our hands from all the civillions.. sadly enough

    I didnt say i totally agree, just what ive heard... just like 18 year olds shouldnt have handguns, in this day and age.. everybody developes different of course, I was very mature at 18, some arent.. some arent at 21.. But the studies show the brain doesnt fully develop reasoning skills till 25.. sure some will be to the exception both ways but everyone has a brain.. :D and they mature similiar.. I'm no doctor just passing on what i heard/read

    Sorry Rnp I didn't mean to hijack the thread...

    in canada, it's 16 to drive( but we now have graduated license, you can't officially drive on your own I think till after one year)
    drinking varies Quebec being the owest at 18 Ontario and many others is 19. Buying a gun couldn't tell you. Never had an interest. Funny they will card you if you look under 25 they will ID to buy cigarettes.

    May I suggest that you get a penicillin shot as soon as possible. Maybe you can schedule it for the same day as your AIDS test :(
    That way you only have to make one trip.


    Just kidding! :D I hope :( Nah...you're probably OK ;)
