Welcome home, Addy.
JW, you did the right thing, stepped in and you were right on the money with everything. I can't believe the bar owner did not come out and take his keys, and call that guy a cab. What an idiot! They are trained that way around here anyhow. They stop serving, too, when the person has had more than his limit, but that doesn't keep them from going around the corner and if they can walk in and not stumble too much, the next place will serve them, too! It's a sad sad thing to be an alcoholic. I drink very little. My daughter had a terrible 4-wheeler accident because of alcohol, rarely has a drink now. More like me, a glass of wine every now and then. My son has never drank. He enlisted in the Army, and was serious about it, so never drank in High School like other teenagers. He didn't want to get in any trouble before he got to the Army. More kids should be like him. LOL The only time I've seen him drink was at his sister's wedding, and he got quite drunk, but always had a smile ... except when he was puking. LOL Then on our cruise in Jan. he drank and got drunk, but I wasn't there. It was a day I was diving with my daughter and cousin. Just heard the funny stories. He's quite a happy drunk, and would NEVER drink and drive.
Happy Easter everyone ... He is risen!!!
