AND NOW FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT
DUBIOUS ADVICE FOR FUTURE HOLIDAYS FROM AN UNNAMED SOURCE

With the Holiday Season now behind us, I would like to share a personal experience with my friends about drinking and driving.

As you may know, some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time on the way home after a "social session" out with friends.

Well, last month I was out for an evening with friends and had several cocktails followed by some rather nice red wine.

Feeling jolly, I still had the sense to know that I may be slightly over the limit.

That's when I did something that I've never done before - I took a cab home.

Sure enough on the way home there was a police road block, but since it was a cab they waved it past. I arrived home safely without incident.

This was a real surprise as I had never driven a cab before.

I don't know where I got it and now that it's in my garage, I don't know what the hell to do with it!

HOPE YOU HAD A HAPPY FESTIVE SEASON AND A WONDERFUL 2019
