--Oh yeah, I realize that I am in a house full of folks that are either stone cold sober, or the epitome of moderation.
I happen to be the latter. I like an
occasional glass of wine or an
occasional bourbon and Coke---short shot, light ice.
I've been that way for most of my adult life. If I have one drink at a party, or a nightclub where I'm listening to or playing
music, that's my self imposed limit and I drink either club soda or plain Coke the rest of the evening.
I
applaud your conquest and your AA-aided sobriety. You should
be applauded for it. That said, I repeat: if the officer in
the original article hadn't been wasting so much time trying to pin a nonexistent rap on one sober driver who "looked" impaired,
despite all evidence showing otherwise, he might have caught another
genuinely impaired driver and thus prevented a needless
death from
actually happening.
