Amazing how 16 credit hours can shape my entire outlook on life, no?

I bet I have 5 Credit Hours. Total.

however I am assuming your "gr.13" was a university requierement on humanities like as a Freshman course...!

Possibly, but I doubt it's as intensive and/or made up of the brainwashing you're claiming it is, being high school and all.

When they lose a point they always accuse one of being drunk or cuckoo...

How many credits do 16 hours amount to, two?

It's 16 credits.

But I didn't lose, you old coot! Putting me on ignore just solidifies you don't have the ammunition required to continue the battle. THROW UP THE WHITE FLAG!

I might not know, since I wasn't in the armed forces, but can you put the enemy on ignore at your leisure? That would be convenient...

 

[Said1]

It's 16 credits.

Ok. Does that represent the length of each class?

In german, you'd be Ein Instigator.

yes...after he is destroyed...ya move on to the next objective.... :firing:

1 hour of class a week = 1 credit.

That was actually an amusing reponse. Regardless of the validity, well done!

Cool.

What case? You have no case. Less than 15% of college was subjective. That's assuming I took all subjective classes, which I didn't. The 5% figure is, in all reality, quite accurate.

My husband graduated with a B.S. in Engineering, and tells pretty much the same story. He had almost all technical courses. Which is why I generally whup him in Jeopardy.

 

[Abbey Normal]

Does that mean I can sell alcohol to minors as long as I admit the mistake?

75K seems extreme. But Applebee's ought pay something as a punitive measure.

That was the point.

 

[SpidermanTuba]

How much should the mom pay for not being able to tell the difference between a long island and an apple juice?

She's not the one serving the drinks. Don't people have a right to expect that the restaurant they are in will respect the alcohol laws and not serve their children booze? What if the mother doesn't drink at all? Does she need to familiarize herself with all the drinks in the book because it is her responsibility to determine whether or not her child's drink is alcoholic and not the responsibility of the person making the drink?


Are you seriously suggesting, that everytime a familiy goes to a restaurant, it is the parents job to taste or smell all their children's drinks to check for alcohol?

No, I'm expecting a parent know what apple juice looks like. I'm suggesting the parent take a little responsibility. You don't need to have ever had a drink to realize that a long island does not look like an apple juice.

This parent should be embarassed, not suing people.

Embarassed by what? It was the restaurant that served a FIVE YEAR OLD CHILD a long island ice tea. Are you suggesting that a mother should know more about alcoholic beverages than a damn waitress? Where is that in the parenting books "Chapter 5 - How to make sure restaurants don't serve your children alcohol drinks"

I think that a family walking into a familiy restaurant has a reasonable expectation that their pre-school aged children will not be served alcoholic beverages. You apparently do not think it is reasonable to expect that. I'll make sure never to take my kids to any restaurant you might happen operate.

Unless the LI Tea were served in a Winnie-The-Pooh cup, yeah - she should have watched more closely.

You people are ridiculous.


Blame the victim. The Republican way.


How many parents here have done a taste test of every drink their child has ever received in a restaurant? Only taste can tell for sure, you know. A coca cola might have a shot of Jim Beam in hit, you'd have to taste to be sure. And you're a bad parent if you don't. You need to be on the lookout - because the restaurant has no responsibility whatsoever to ensure they don't break state alcohol laws by serving your preschooler alcohol.
