I have no idea what Nads is. But I did see a woman at a concert the other day who had razor stubble for a fairly full black beard (in line behind her for the toilet). I felt bad for her.

It was just a stray hair, and yes, he could have plucked it. Was my "this sounds petty" disclaimer lost on everyone here? Flower, could you help these folks with some reading comprehension lessons?

Reading comprehension? You said "some weird hair" which could have been taken to mean collective hair as well as one hair. If you had meant one weird hair, you could have spared us the confusion. I'm just saying. Furry hair could be just as petty.

I'm not meaning to get all Timmy, because that's not my place. My place is in the shallow end. And now you've turned me into this.

Hats off to you, this should be the next board motto!

Quick question - why does a 66 year old man have to drink beer in a car after a football game? Can't wait to get to the bar?

LINCOLN, Neb. - ABC sportscaster Brent Musburger had a pretty expensive beer.

He was charged with drinking it in a moving vehicle, and paid a $144 fine. Musburger was a passenger in the vehicle.

The 66-year-old Musburger was cited Sept. 17 outside Memorial Stadium after calling Nebraska’s game against Pittsburgh. He was one of several people cited for similar alcohol offenses that Saturday, police said.

According to records from the Lincoln city attorney’s office, Musburger paid the fine on Oct. 20 rather than show up in court. He was fined $50 for the open container of alcohol, $50 for drinking from it and $44 in court costs.

Have you never been to a college football game? There are probably more people doing this than not.

Remarkably, in a number of states this is legal.

As well as it should be.

What? That's CRAZY. Where?

(OK, not crazy, but I thought prohibitions on open containers were pretty widespread.)

Open Container Laws

What Is an Open Container Law?

An Open Container law makes it a criminal offense to have an open container of alcohol inside the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle. Open Container laws are an important tool in the fight against drunk driving.

Is There a Federal Open Container Law?

Open Container laws vary from state to state. However, the federal government has established a program to encourage states to conform their Open Container laws to certain federal standards.

A state’s Open Container law must meet six standards to fully conform to the federal requirements:

Prohibit possession of any open alcoholic beverage container and the consumption of any alcoholic beverage in a motor vehicle

Apply to all alcoholic beverages

Define the “passenger area” of any motor vehicle as the area designed to seat the driver and passengers while the motor vehicle is in operation and any area that is readily accessible to the driver or a passenger while in their seating positions, including the glove compartment

Apply to all drivers and passengers in the motor vehicle

Apply to a motor vehicle while it is located anywhere on a public highway or the right-of-way (e.g., shoulder) of the public highway

Specify that officers have the authority to stop a vehicle to enforce the Open Container law

All but 14 states have Open Container laws that conform to the federal standards.

Ha ha, I got this from a site called "legalmatch.com" -- legal, match, get it?

Yes, people have been drinking all day. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Musberger was working and then presumably going out with the buds. Drinking in a car? For what? To catch up?

"Woo dude you're going to have to pound the Buds to catch up with us man. You can't get in to [insert name here] sports bar unless you've caught a buzz man."

Speaking of beer...BERLIN - A German man drank too much, wet his bed and set fire to his apartment while trying to dry his bedding, police in the western town of Muelheim said on Monday.

“He was too drunk to go to the toilet,” said a police spokesman. “The next morning he put a switched-on hair dryer on the bed to dry it and left the apartment.” When the 60-year-old returned, his home and belongings were in flames.

HA.

I have no idea why Brent wanted a beer, but there have been plenty of times when waiting to have one is unacceptable.

Nuts!

While I don't condone drinking and driving, please, PLEASE, feel free to drink before going hunting!

More quick questions: What the fuck does his being 66 have to do with anything?

Why would you think anyone would think this is worth reading?

How many times did your parents drop you directly on your head?

What is the percentage of times they did it on purpose?
