So, i must concede that i am guilty of researching the prices of the Kitchenaid mixer i’ve wanted for years, and of buying it from Amazon dot com rather than the restaurant supply store down the street. I spent $299 where the kitchen store wanted $369 plus tax.

I have no issues with drinking and driving (with one BIG, obvious exception). Hell, in Wisconsin the rule is almost expressed “drinking while driving.” I’ve never driven a car when i felt, for whatever reason, unable to perform up to spec and have actively prevented others from doing the same, but i’m sure i have driven when over the legal limit. However in Oregon i can’t. I cannot drink ethanol knowing i’ll be driving back to wherever. It’s odd. I can’t explain.
