re "some counties, no alcohol", when I was in Dallas it was wet or dry by precinct within the metro area. In wet precincts, restaurants could sell alcohol by the drink and there were package stores. In dry precincts, only private clubs could sell alcohol by the drink.
So we went to a Mexican restaurant, found in order to get a Margarita we had to pay $10 for a "weekend membership card" in their private club, then we could buy the drink. Can anybody say "hypocrisy" (in the name of capitalism!)? -Ben -----Original Message----- From: Nick McClure [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 06, 2002 9:41 AM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: Religious argument in the US... Why? Pretty similar to the way it is in Lexington. On Sunday, no bars are open, and grocery stores cannot sell alcohol. All alcohol sales must stop at 1:00 AM. In some counties, no alcohol at all.
