Re: 75 yrs ago today...
Hell yeah....I feel like Repeal Day was a big deal last year....I didn't even think about it until I saw your post. Better go out and buy some booze, just to exercise my freedom to get smashed....

I hear ya. I work until 11 which in MA means I can't even go and get beer after work. I may be going to a bar, but it looks like I'll be attacking my own bar tonight.ms. awesomesauce wrote:some people never leave the pub, i suppose.

I've been waiting for Repeal Day all week, then Wednesday I started coming down with a cold. Sure enough, Thursday I was all-out sick. I'm better now save for a head full of phlegm, but that was a close one!
I didn't fight a secret war in Nicaragua so you could walk these streets of freedom badmouthing Lady America, in your damn mirrored sunglasses!
