Snow, Chic-Fil-A, and Underage Drinking

A few random thoughts...

Its snowing outside (again). I don't think it will snow for very long or accumulate very much, but here's the dilemma... Tonight, across from the St. Matthews Mall, a new Chic-Fil-A is opening. Actually it opens tomorrow morning. It will be managed by our good friends Darrell and Jenny Estep. Tomorrow morning the 1st 100 customers get free Chic-Fil-A for a year. That's right. Free goodness for a year. They say you must camp out to be one of the first because so many people desire the goodness. We desire the goodness too. One reason is because its one of the only foods that doesn't cause a barf-fest with the pregnant wife. Another reason is because we don't have much money and never eat out. So this will be a nice thing for us to have to boost quality of life - because Chic-Fil-A always boosts quality of life. So back to the dilemma...It's snowing outside and supposed to be really cold tonight and we don't have much cold gear. And did I mention Shana is pregnant? We do have Andy's (my bro) tent. I think we could do it, but it'll be a tough journey to gain the goodness.

I caught a bit of a radio commercial on the way to class this morning. It was sponsored by the Ad Council (like all public service commercials in Louisville). It was promoting an awareness to end underage drinking. Here was their pitch, "it's dangerous and can cause teenagers to use bad judgment." Right. I agree. Not to mention it is illegal. But here's the thing. How is it different for adults? More adults kill people because of alcohol related bad judgment and being dangerous than anything else. It just sounds like a bad argument that any teenager could turn around to the adult and say, "how is it different for you?" I guess being an adult either makes you immune to bad decisions when it comes to alcohol or makes it ok for you to make bad decisions when under the influence.

That's all.
