Keg beer parties may soon come become illegal in Alabama because of problems with underage drinking, and it will be with the support of the beer industry. The Alabama Senate voted 30-0 Tuesday for legislation that would ban the sale of draft beer in kegs of five gallons or more to individuals. The legislation would still permit draft beer to be sold in restaurants and bars in the 24 counties where it's legal. The bill, which now goes to the House for consideration, was supported by the Alabama Wholesale Beer Association. "We want to make sure the people who use our products are of age and use it responsibly," Executive Director Donna Alexander said.

2. You mean to go along with...

...the "Heart of Dixie" that is mandated to be on every plate issued by the state?

A few years ago, a woman was pulled over for a traffic violation in Alabama. The officer noticed that she had used a small piece of tape to cover the "Heart of Dixie" part of her license plate. The woman, an African-American, explained that it offended her and next thing you know, she's having the book thrown at her for "defacing" her plate.

Old times here are not forgotten...
