Drinking Age

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Make it 19. That for the most part keeps it out of the high schools and solves the problems of 14-17 year olds getting it. It's not like 19 and 20 year olds have any problem at all getting alcohol now.

It's been a few years since I was in the Army and I never had any interest in alcohol,  but my recollection is that 18 year-olds ARE allowed to drink on millitary bases.

that's what a kid my freshmen year on my floor who was in the Army told me.

Like I said though, it's pointless. Anyone on a college campus can get alcohol. But since I wasn't driving anyway, there was no problems.

oh yeah if you want some irony my former RA is getting me alcohol now.

It was her job to catch me if I had any when I was in the dorms (which she never did) and now she's giving it to me! ha ha.

I can't believe you all think it should be lowered. When you are assigned to respond to a drink driving accident when a drunk 17 year old killed himself and 4 other people, and you have to notify the parents I think you'll change your mind.

Case and point. 18 year olds are NOT mature enough for alcohol.

I have never driven any night after I have been drinking, and that includes when I was 18. So what did I do wrong?

Usually when I go to parties I'll walk to the party, and call a taxi or get a ride from someone else if I can't walk back. I'll probably still do that in 4 months when I'm 21.
