jj, I don't think I ever drank that stuff. I think I did get busted once trying to buy it when I was under age (they just confiscated it). I had to appear in court, and I never laughed so hard in my life. There were so many comical cases before mine we (my buddies and I) couldn't help ourselves. We also had a buddy with us who was an exchange student from Brazil, and we had him convinced this hearing was to finalize his deportation. When I got in front of the judge, I asked him, "So how do you like your job?" He said if we came over to his house he'd show us a thing or two about drinking (this was in the courtroom in front of everyone!). After we got the fine, the bailif told me I came very close to being held in contempt. Fact was, that was the first time I ever tried to buy the stuff, and I never drank before age 18 because I wanted to keep most of my brain cells(drinking age was 21 then). I pretty much drank in college only so I'd have good drinking stories to tell when I got older <G>.
