Why are they not allowed to play together in OK?
Shouldn't we be able to celebrate our freedom by being free to buy something of a non-food product nature?
Oppressed on Independence Day.
We should dress up and dump boxes of something into the river...onto the river bed.

Yet, we can still go order a mixed drink or straight shot at a restaurant or bar. |

You could...plan ahead? Saturday should be plenty busy just before the fourth.
BTW, (instant thread drift) is there going to be a fireworks display by the river this year?

Townsend, it's because you don't know what's best for you: "they" (nebulous and all knowing they) know what is best for you.."they" will save you from yourself.

I believe so. Otherwise people are going to spend $20 to $25 for tickets on rooftops for very little reason. |

I was talking with the owner at a local liquor store about being closed on election day. I thought it should be just another work day, but he disagreed. "We get an extra day off and go play golf!" he said. The stores are open 6 days a week. Why begrudge them an extra day now and then?

It's not that they shouldn't be able to close. It's that they must. |

His point was that he didn't want to see the law changed to permit sales on election day or holidays. He's happy with the status quo, and why shouldn't he be? After all, have any of us ever seen a liquor story with a 'Going out of Business' sign?

Too bad they don't sell real beer or wine. |
