I haven't been in the US in years during a "drinking holiday", and here people just do not drink and drive.

first offense: car impounded, huge fine, 6 month driving suspension, plus whatever the military tacks on for military members (varies from case to case)
second offense: car possessed by government, huge fine, jailtime, you lose your license permanently, plus whatever the military tacks on.

Yes we get the occasional stupid person who does and loses their license for 6 months but I've yet, in the 4.5 years I've been here, known, read of or heard of anyone who did it a second time. And since all police activity is published in the local paper...

However if I were in the US I'd definitely stay at home on Memorial Day, New Year's, and all the other 'drinking' holidays.

TPBM loves hockey.

Nope, I haven't handled any fireworks this year.

TPBM lives in an area where people pull over on busy interstates to watch fireworks.

No, I wore blue and black, but I did wear my "America" tshirt yesterday at work and during my walk. I have 3 or 4 of them [patriotic t shirts], but I went "out" today, so I needed to be somewhat dressy.

TPBM is a fan of Elvis.

Yes - because I'm a Brit living in Bangkok, so it's just another day in my world. BUT it was only a half day, because it was the last day of term (the kids' last day was Thursday, but we had to go in on Friday to sort out and pack up and so forth).

TPBM is wearing matching bra and knickers.
