Hee hee... to quote John James Audoban: quote: Although the existence of this species (Western Meadowlark) was known to the celebrated explorers of the west, Lewis and Clark, during their memorable journey across the Rocky Mountains and to the Pacific; no one has since taken the least notice of it.

He also said: quote: Pas de shooting of gooses. Okay, so that was inevitable. I'm not ashamed to be the one to post it.

Hey, around here, folks say you have to watch your babies carefully, or else a mosquito will come along and carry them away.

We're waiting for Farmgirl to finish answering. You can ask another question while we wait, Annie.

Exactly. The last question hasn't been completely answered yet. I don't know the answer, so I'm waiting for someone who does to come and, maybe, provide a question I might know the answer to.

The Ozarks are hills: most of it'll be underwater when Antarctica melts. [ August 04, 2004, 06:35 PM: Message edited by: aspectre ]

It's illegal in all states for people under 21 to have public possession of alcohol. However, in many states it is quite legal for younger people to drink in private. Including private clubs in some states.

I've bought alcohol before, and I'm quite underage. Of course, it was lab ethanol and it probably isn't safe to drink.

Well, I know here kids can go to bars/restaurants/wherevers with their parents, who then buy their kids drinks... but I don't know the official answer to that.
