Like makin sure the coloreds don't set at the counter, and "Adult Education" (teaching 40 year olds it's not cool to stick it in your 14 year old cousin?") I joke. I keed.

It's so painfully unfunny it borders on offensive. Still too soon.

I'm FROM Alabama, but now live in Texas. Been here almost 20 years, so I've been in Texas longer than I was in Alabama. Anyway, it's an OK place to be FROM. LOL

Huntsville is awesome. We have good beer, hockey and a good car scene (autocrossing, etc.). Plus we have one of the highest concentrations of PHds in the country. So make fun of Alabama all you want just keeps prices of stuff cheap for the rest of me.

True dat. Used to love to go up there to the Space & Rocket Center. I lived in the Birmingham area. Blegh...

Nope, it was, and continues to be hysterical.

Well, Huntsville's different! Let's take a look at one of the locally produced products.

As far as MS goes, I lived in Starkville for 7-8 years. I'll just say the place wasn't quite what I was looking for.

My old man grew up in MS, left for 25 years and didn't check to see if the wide spot he grew up in had "gone wet" before buying a house & moving back. He got a big surprise when he moved back. He was only 3 miles from the county line, but the Sheriff lived 2 houses down the road...

Some people who supposedly are for freedom seem to forget those views when it comes to imposing their religious views on others.

For the record i am totally cool with whatever you believe just leave me and my beer out of it!!

Using Christianity to outlaw alcohol really does not make sense to me. WWJD? He'd turn water into mother berkeleying wine at your party. That's what he'd do.

the town I grew up in is dry. It was founded as a methodist sea side resort and stayed true to both being dry and not selling anything on sundays (until NJ struck down blue laws)

now the businesses are fighting to allow BYOB.. but the residents don't want it. They fear it will turn the town into a party place like Sea Isle or Wildwood. Alcohol is not illegal, you just cannot drink it in public and you cannot buy it in town. The two main bridges into Ocean City NJ both have liquer stores within a minute of crossing onto the mainland
