"sorry sir, we can't sell alcohol on New Years Day"

WTF? it's Tuesday?

"it's a law"

so the bars closed down at midnight?

"i don't know sir but i do know i can't sell you alcohol on New Years Day"

Early one morning, my pastor and his wife go to McDonalds and order a sausage biscuit.

Pastor - "May I have please have some mustard with the sausage biscuit?"

Window Waitress - "Wait. I have to get my manager."

Mgr - "How can I help you?"

Pastor - "I'd like a packet of mustard with my sausage biscuit."

Mgr - "I'm sorry, sir. Mustard is not a breakfast item."

The only reason I go into Walmart is to . . . umm . . ."reload" :mj07: via Moneygram. Customer service is always packed with people making returns.

I just feel like I need a shower once I'm there.

I know how you feel. Has happened to me twice. First I moved to South Dakota on a Sunday morning, and wanted to get some beer for my Mom, stepdad and I after I was moved in. Walked into the store, and the liquor section was gated off. No alcohol sales on Sunday. Didn't have that in Wisconsin.

Second time was when I moved to Texas. Get there on a Saturday and after I'm moved in, stop by Wal-Mart to get some household supplies and some drinks to unwind... no alcohol sales. It's Saturday! They tell me that the entire city of Irving is dry.... no alcohol sales other than bars... AT ALL! They tell me I can go to the suburb Grapevine b/c they have beer and wine there, but I'd have to drive into the Dallas city limits to get an liquor. THIS IS ONE OF THE LARGEST METROPOLITAN AREAS IN THE COUNTRY!!! For the next 18 months, if I wanted to have a couple Jack and Cokes while watching a game, it required about 50-minute round-trip drive if I was out. Terrible.

Yo Fin, I had the same thing when I moved to Dallas. I moved in and after a long day, wanted a cold beer or few. Convenience store not 100 yards from where I lived, walked in looked around and asked the guy where is the beer. He said you must not be from around here:mj07: Had to drive 13 miles each way just to buy a damn six pack:shrug: Come to find out that it is voted by each zip code or municipality and where it was legal, there are 10-40 package stores and they are all busy. BUT you could sell alcohol at any establishment that serves food:shrug: Nice way to promote drinking and driving. The other strange law was any place that had a bar, you could not see the bar from the front door:shrug: Almost six million people and only like 8-10 places that you can buy alcohol to take home, unbelievable.

then they can hold you down, against your will, and give you a blood test even administered by an inexperienced cop, with whatever needed force. :shrug:
