What are your thoughts on Alcohol in the PB/MB community?
I have returned recently to PB and found it disturbing that they've created this new ban. Once again we've surrendered another freedom in the pursiut of a "safer society". Police are omnipresent, patrolling the beach areas in the event of trouble. Is this all about their jobs becoming easier, so they might have to do something other than flirt with a pretty girl in a bikini? I doubt you'll stop drinking on the beach, considering that it doesn't take a genius to pre-mix screwdrivers in a thermos or liqour-up before getting on the sand in their car. Get real, this is about relaxing and having a great time...and this comes from a guy who hasn't had a drink in years!— February 15, 2009 9:41 p.m.
ALIEN LANDS IN PB
Interesting style of writing...kind of a circular stream of consciosness or something.I enjoyed it and the absurdity of the players in the piece...very PB!— January 19, 2009 8:41 p.m.
Bad Times for PB Drivers...
Hi Ponzi, Letting the police write $1,000 tickets sounds great, till it turns into an income generating scheme for local/state governments. Remember, whether you come to a FULL stop is completely up to the subjective interpretation by the individual officer. It has become well publicized that police across the country are increasingly being pressured to write tickets that are rising in cost at dizzying rates, in order to help supplement recession affected budgets. I think a higher demerit point penalty would be far more effective. Once you've lost all your points, you can't drive at all! A fine only hurts those who can't afford to pay. Demerits hurt everyone equally.— January 6, 2009 8:46 p.m.
