As of 3:33 PST this morning, I am twenty years old. Happy birthday to me!
Let this also serve as a notcie that I will not be around from Tuesday to Friday because I will be in Las Vegas visiting Star Trek: The Experience with my girlfriend---whom I have, in a major coup, succeeded in getting hooked on ST. I will try to take lots of pictures and post them upon my return. Plus there will be the hot monkey sex. But not for you guys. Just pictures. Of the Trek stuff. Not the sex.

Sweet! Take pics of the new (Lobo created) Borg stuff for me!
You'll love the giant starshps hanging from the sentral ceiling and Quark's Bar is cool if really small and their food is just okay.
The souviner to get: they sell Isoleniar Chips on a keychain. I had planned on going back last year and buying a dozen or so to stick into my computer's case. That would have been cool.
- Of course, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, you thing from another world, you!

Well, in the interest of not feeling guilty about what his girlfriend will soon be going through, let's all just pretend that Mim isn't so far gone yet that his idea of talking dirty is to whisper Borg one-liners in her ear. B)

Are you old enough for a scotch yet where you are? I'll pour one for you, regardless.

I'm afraid he isn't, Fisk. You see, here in the States, we're allowed to die for our country at age 18. We're allowed to change the leadership of our country at age 18. We're allowed to start on the path to lung cancer and lawsuit earnings from Big Tobacco at age 18. We're allowed to freely have sex and become solely responsible for our actions at age 18.
But we cannot consume alcohol until age 21.
Even worst, though, is the reduction in car insurance premiums doesn't occur until age 25. And, folks, this is the real tragedy.
Happy Birthday, Mim. May it memorable because in ten years you'll start dreading the birthdays.

The whole drinking age thing strikes me as a bit archaic. It's a holdover from prohibition. As Siegfried pointed out, if we're legally adults at age 18, then why are we still told that we can't make that one decision? Because having a beer is a far bigger life decision than having sex or joining the armed forces?
Wait a minute... I'm 29. I guess I don't really care anymore. I'm off to have a beer.

I'm 32 now (as of the fourth) so i requite a drink from each Flarite with a snappy phrase under their name.
