If you make that point after I’ve just been on Facebook I might agree.
The amount of stupidity is mind boggling.

Yeah, we have the monopoly on morons and folks who won't do the right thing. No meth in Iowa. No looters in Louisiana. No narcissists in California. No extremists in Idaho.

Which is why I don't use Facebook as an example of the general attitudes or thoughts of people in America.
I use it to buy and sell merchandise, read a few book groups with gun problems post's, and keep up to date in what old vehicles are going for and surf the 'vette pages for information on a potential future purchase (debating buying C7 GS).

Speaking of FB....
Just saw a post on openspokane that the Village Tavern in Airway Heights is opening for business on Wednesday despite state orders.
If true it will be interesting to see what happens.
I’ve lost 10’s of thousands in bar business already.

If you lived in the Communist State of WA would you be a rebel and say fuck Inslee or would you comply?

Fuck you asshole. So you are saying that the elderly, people with compromised immune systems, etc are "cowering in their houses"? They're trying not to get this thing.....especially from dumb asses like you that run around like nothing is happening.

On the bright side, the Liquor Control Board is now allowing cocktails to go for places like ours. Looking into beer cart delivery for houses on the course. I’m your Ice Cream Man...stop me when I’m passing by....

Used to be a bottle shop in Fargo with a drive-thru window. I think it was called Broncos, on University, just south of Main. Not sure if it's still there.Winterborn wrote: ↑Mon May 11, 2020 7:47 pmThere is a bar in ND that you can still order one for the road (or to go) and they wrap it in a brown paper bag to help keep it a bit cooler.....

Re: Poll: Do You Support Re-Opening Most of America?
We were going to play in the University of Wyoming Cowboy Invitational my senior year. Our coach (who also happened to be my dad) gave me the keys to the school van to go pick up some snacks and that’s how we discovered you could pull up to a drive-thru for booze in that state. High fives and then many hotel hallway putting bets ensued that evening in Laramie.Gil Dobie wrote: ↑Tue May 12, 2020 4:29 amUsed to be a bottle shop in Fargo with a drive-thru window.
