Well we have come a long way in my lifetime. Back in the sixties and seventies I remember a fellow who was a well known alcoholic and a successful local business man who was in an accident where he killed another man. He got a good lawyer and did not spend a day in jail. I am not sure if he paid a fine or what but no jail time.

I remember driving home after too much to drink once. Very uncomfortable, I'll never get that wasted again. Another time coming home on a curvy road with my Mrs. on my motorcycle. Again, very uncomfortable though I was in much better shape than the other time.

Now two drinks is the limit unless the Mrs. drives and is sober.

I have way too much to lose to take such chances now.
