I Love Chip

He came to my rescue once again.  I was letting out the clutch after I parked at the Dollar store and something went pop and my clutch peddle was suddenly not connected to anything.  It sounded like it had just popped loose.  I looked, but I couldn't see anything.  I walked over to Chips (everything in Ellisville is just down the road or around the corner).  He went over and fixed it in like 5 seconds.  I drove back to his shop and he made it so it wouldn't happen again.  He said that it shouldn't have happened, that all that stuff was new, that he replaced it all when he replaced the master and slave cylinders and the reservoir.  No charge :)

I always get distraught when a vehicle breaks.  How will I get home?  Should I call my poor neighbor to come to my rescue again?  Should I hoof it 12 miles?  If I have to have it towed will the nice towing man give me a lift home?  I'm sure he would.  I'm a repeat customer ::)  This time it was easy peasy.  Chip even told me to grab a beer out of the fridge ;D

Always move forward. Never look back.

It 21  :(. But I did some research and apparently I can have alcohol right now. As long as my parents serve it to me and I'm in the house I can have alcohol :).

LizStreithorst

Fat chance of that.  I looked it up and it says that you can buy a drink at a bar when you are 18 in Georgia.  Can't go into a store to buy it though.  The restaurant/bar business must have lobbied hard for that one.  Nothing like having a bunch of drunk teenagers on the road ::)

I can have alcohol in my house if my parents serve it to me, I did not say anything about bars. Also i may have alcohol for religious reasons too  mim.

You've researched that way too much. You're a sot!

QuoteLegal Exceptions to Under 21 Possession:

There are a few exceptions in which a person under 21 can possess / consume alcohol without criminal liability:

1. For medical purposes pursuant to a prescription.

2. At a religious ceremony.

3. When the parent or guardian of the person under 21 years of age gives the alcoholic beverage to the person and when possession is in the home of the parent or guardian and such parent or guardian is present.
