Sobering Saturday Ramblings

kybearfuzzThe day started well enough, the nephew and I went to see my sister at work. After about an hour there, she closed up shop and we went to my parents' old house to retrieve a few childhood items. My folks no longer live in the house and it's been closed up for a long time. It was kind of sad to see how it had delapidated so quickly it seemed. The sis and I found what we were looking for and left.
Mom's birthday is today, she's 65. My sis and I wanted to take her out to dinner, but she ended up running the roads with her hubby all day with friends, looking at old cemetaries apparently. She was too tired to go out with us she said. Well, it is her birthday and she can do whatever she wants.
After getting cleaned up, we were starved and decided meet up with some friends at Angels & Wings, the first bar & grill in my hometown after prohibition got lifted after 70 or so years. I never realized how much my nephew and my brother-in-law drank! Chris put away eight Coronas in three hours and my brother-in-law was putting away the better part of four pitchers. Both are currently shit-faced as I write this. I hate to say it, but both have drinking problems, especially in light of Chris' multiple DUI's. How do you politely tell someone they drink way too much?
Positive note: today marks the 10th anniversary of my graduation from college!

When was prohibition lifted in the ol' hometown. I nearly fell over reading this? There's a "bar & grill" in town? Holy cow.
