Ho ho hoo, Ishman,
This is a non-alcoholic Bacchanalia.
Except for the parents who will be inside....
There was a party a few months ago where the parents (God knows what they were thinking- have I already posted this?) served alcohol and a boy almost died.
They brought charges against the parents.
Southlake is SERIOUS about protecting their (our) children.
We spend thousands for a graduation party lockin- with super prizes and a casino and all sorts of entertainment to keep them out of trouble.
Money is a wonderful thing.
I guess I wonder-- if you have it, isn't it ok to do this?
If we have money, the way our economy is set up, don't we do what we can for our own children?
Isn't that what capitalism is?
But yet when we succeed, playing the game well, or even just being lucky, smart enough, got the right breaks, why then do we feel so guilty?

I've been thinking a lot about this with the Elian situation.
