Hideous Penguin Boy vs. Really Big Head

Because more than anything, we need real change.

Sorry, kids. Better luck next time.

There's a fairly large college campus down the street from my workplace. Thus, you can always tell when classes have started up again because you start seeing newer, younger faces... and the occasional fake ID from some kid who hasn't heard from his buddies that hey, that stores will keep your shit so don't bother. I've confiscated two in the last four days alone, which is pretty unusual considering we can go a couple of months without seeing one. One of them was flawed but very good as far as these things go and would probably pass muster in 98 of 100 tries. The other... well, not so good. One of the shitty cheap-looking "Non-Government ID Card" dealies you can pick up on the streets of NYC for fifty to a hundred bucks. I always feel sorry for kids who carry those around -- it's like they didn't realize they were buying a big sticker for their forehead that reads SUCKER in big red print.

what's the penalty for selling booze to an underage kid?

A $750 fine and a three-day suspension for a first offense. The liquor board doesn't fuck around.

I am SO THANKFUL than neither of my sons ever had a fake ID. Nor did they drink until they were 21. Or swear. Or have sex. ;-)

Seriously, I am SO glad the high school and college years are behind me. And did I mention? OUR BABY (24) IS GETTING MARRIED NEXT JUNE. What's next? A GRANDCHILD???

No, no, no...I'm too young to be a grandmother. Grandmothers bake and sew and tell stories about the Depression. I WENT TO WOODSTOCK fer chrissakes...I PEED IN A FIELD.

Isn't it funny, that even with me accidently hitting the "Anonymous" post button, that you can immediately tell who left that last comment? ;-)
