[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 186799, member: 1514"] I am officially old. I grew up when the drinking age changed with me. Or at least it did in the state I grew up in. When I turned 18 we could buy beer. When I turned 21, you could buy liquor. Then right after I turned "legal" for everything they did the whole nationwide thing where you had to be 21 for everything but it didnt matter to me. I dont think VA had 3.2 beer but maybe it did. I do remember going to Denver and that was a big deal. Remember the movie Smokey and the Bandit? Wasnt that about importing higher alcohol content beer? Or was it another movie...lol. I dont know where I stand on this to be honest. I dont know if we drank more or not. I know that once the ability of being legal to buy and drink beer and liquor was there...I didnt much care for it. It was more the thrill of doing something wrong. And it does seem stupid that people can go fight for this country but cant drink a beer. Of course that doesnt stop a one of them. Bars will sell beer to almost anyone in a uniform. Its almost a right of passage in the military. [/QUOTE]
