Boy if you don’t learn anything else from these two posts, you ought to learn just how dumb drinking makes you.  This one is from Fairbanks Alaska, and I quote again:

A motorist confronted by a state trooper said he was stunned when the officer told him the car had been stolen.   Charles J. Schultz explained that he was driving his Chevy Cavalier and everything was fine. That’s when the trooper informed Schultz that he was actually behind the wheel of a Ford Escort.   Police charged Schultz with auto theft, felony driving under the influence and misdemeanor drugs misconduct.  Police said the 27-year-old had a blood-alcohol content of .166, more than twice the legal limit.

It all started when Fairbanks police received a report shortly after midnight Friday that a Ford Escort had been stolen from the parking lot of a gentle men’s club. An officer spotted the stolen Ford two hours later — with Schultz driving.   Schultz swore he had no memory of taking the wrong vehicle outside the club, according to a criminal complaint.

Pretty bad when you steel a Ford Escort and have no memory of it especially when he thought he was driving a Chevy Cavalier.  Yes I would say that drinking makes you stupid for sure.

Is it me or has this been a long week?  We had a teachers work day on Tuesday so thank goodness there were only kids in school for just 4 days this week and still it was a long week.  Why is it that when you get a day off in the middle of the week, it makes the week seem to drag on?  Maybe it’s because in your mind you’re thinking it will go by fast and that just slows everything down.  Does that make any sense at all?  I think I’m ready for the winter break.  I think I need it.

Check this story out from Lancaster Pennsylvania, and I quote:

Police say a central Pennsylvania man was arrested on drunken driving charges twice in less than six hours. The man’s first arrest came just before 11 a.m. Sunday after police said his car hit the back of a stopped vehicle in Manheim Township, Lancaster County.  The man was arrested for suspected DUI. After he was processed, he was released to his girlfriend.

The man was arrested again just before 4 p.m. after police said a second accident happened after he turned left in front of another vehicle.  The 50-year-old was arraigned by a magisterial district judge after the second crash. Police said he was sent to Lancaster County Prison.  There were no serious injuries in either crash.

Can you say DUH-HUH?  This person obviously has a serious drinking problem.  I hope he stays in prison long enough to get totally dried out and can understand the severity of his problem.  He could have killed someone or even himself but usually people like him only hurt others.  I’m glad he’s where he is.

It seems like every time I turn around, I need more computer memory. Where in the world is it all going? I think I just added some about six months ago and now I need more. It might have something to do with the fact that my grand kids keep putting their games on my computer.  Well they have to have something to occupy their time when it’s raining or too cold to go outside.  Maybe I need to just get them a computer of their own for when they come over.  That’s a thought too.

Isn’t looking for a new cell phone fun?  Well it might be for you but it’s usually a total nightmare for me.  I got my cell phone to call people when I got the first my  free T-mobile phones.  You know, if I ever got lost or broke down on the road at night, God forbid, and not have a way home, then I could actually call someone to come get me or come fix what ever is wrong with my car.

Then that little phone became my message center when I got one of those free Sprint phones.  I had to know who was calling and couldn’t be without it.  You know how it is, someone just might need me.  The next thing you know, I was texting on my free Verizon phones (and I had two of them by now) if I wasn’t emailing on my computer.  See, I got one for my husband but he’s, shall we say, technology challenged about some things and a cell phone is one of those things.

Now that my husband has found out that cell phones and water just don’t mix, I’m checking out free at&t cell phones because I think they have one someone showed my husband that he actually liked.  What happened to the other phone is he fell out of his boat when he went fishing with his phone in his pocket.  I just might go back to where I started off and go back to Sprint phones.  Yeah, I think that’s what I’ll do.
