21 Today
 

Yes, I turn the great age of 21 today.
The good news, I am finally legal to do everything (casinos and the alcohol, if I choose). Sadly, I am home from college, and my mouth is wired shut (due to surgery-but it is very good results).

Oddly, it is a very good year. Turn 21, bro gets married in July and is doing very well professional, my surgical/medicial advances are amazing (looks like I am getting an extreme makeover)-and the new self confidence is amazing as well, go back to college as a senior hopefully in the fall, look foward to my future extremely more so, and just looked to check on the status of my laptop from Hewlett-Packard, and it shipped (estimated to ship by April 1st): Though I do find it odd where it is shipping from (not really odd, just funny):

Any ideas of when it will arrive in New York State area?

That's cool. I never knew you could do anything on your 21st B'day...

I need you to kill someone for me. :D

Man it's late...I meant "its finally good to be at the age where you can anything that is legal."

Can you hold the office of President of the United States?

Oops...maybe not "anything" that's legal, huh? :)

You can still get blitzed even with your jaw wired shut. Have a blast, bud! :D

Yeah, that would be great if I was at college. But drinking alone at home, with my mom here, not the funniest idea. :)

Don't knock 20! I wouldn't mind being there again :rolleyes:

Happy birthday! It must suck to have to wait to 21 to have a legal drink!

Happy Birthday! I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed my 21st birthday.

So, with your jaw wired shut, do you just pour the beer on your teeth and wait for it to seep in? I would suggest wearing a poncho.

Somebody decided that if you are under 21, chances were much higher than normal that you would try to operate a car and attempt to drive it.

I would prefer a drinking age of 18 and a driving age of 21. That way kids would have a chance to know what alchohol does to them before they ever operate a car.

Of course, that suggestion would only work under the assumption that America actually had public transportation that was safe, cost effective and logical to use.
