    In Norway you're limited to under 23% until you're 20.

    Until 1982 or 3, in Arizona, 19 was the legal drinking age.
    120 proof? Comin' right up!

    I was 19 and living in Phoenix in '79. :D

    I hope you're not implying that I don't work hard, or that I don't deserve what I earn. In the civilian sector, I'd be making probably 3 times what I make in the military.

    No, I mean that the military isn't paying for my college tuition, so I'm just plugging away at a summer job in landscaping.

    If your GPA is high enough you can apply for a grant.
    My sister, 3 half-sisters, 2 half-brothers, and several others in the extended family did.

    yeah, but some grants you have to pay back. be careful you don't get stuck with one of those.

    Actually I screwed up that posting as it's supposed to read 3 step-sisters and 2 step-brothers.

    Car troubles, cash-flow problem, lack of sleep.....

    I only have 1 half-relation still alive and if that traitor ever comes within arm's reach, I plan to correct that.

    The way I see it, there are two possibilies.

    1) Rosie's mother stayed within the safety of her mother's womb far longer than conventional medicine would make you believe is possible. This explains why Rosie's grandmother now sits in a wheelchair, and also why little Rosie was taught to call her brothers "uncle" and her older sister "auntie".

    2) The "midlife crisis" refers to Rosie's father, who at some point replaced the old, saggy piece of ass with one which gravity hadn't had that much time to affect.

    I'm totally for 1).

    that'd be option #2. my dad got sick of his first wife, divorced her, and impregnanted a girl younger than three of his children. now that's classy.
