    I was shocked to see the advertising campaign regarding buzzed driving = drunk driving. I never realized people didn't associate "Being buzzed" with being drunk.

    Wow! That pic said alot! I think 50 recipes ives many options. I've always thought that when people go out and drink most of them are driving drunk or buzzed. Sad people don't take it into consideration

    I love that pupmkin!

    I always let my buzz wear off before I drive home. One drink per hour is the rule and I stop drinking at least an hour before I leave.
