Re: JimmyA
To tell you the truth, Wiley, I was certainly a fool that night, and was definitely drunk, but I never really considered myself to be a drunk. That night I was an easily-lead teenager following the crowd, and almost paid for it. I was never really much of a drinker then, and I'm really not much of a drinker now. Kudos to anyone who can walk away from that lifestyle and situation.

Absolutely, Kabu. In fact, I've even gone so far as to stop drinking altogether! An occasional beer here, maybe a glass of wine there, but that's about it. I will never put myself . . . or anyone else . . . in that position ever again! Too scary, and life is much too short!

Re:
Well, Sam, I'd have to say that it was a very brave angel, to sit in that car with us! Never again!

Re:
That's a strong possibility, Butterfly. Especially after meeting my wife. I think that's why I was spared!

and I am sure that the miracle continued by the fact that you
had learned not to drink and drive and risk yours and other lives ever again. Wonderful post friend J.

Yes, that was a miracle 
. Did it scare you enough to stop drinking and driving? I was scared just reading about that drive.

I agree that it's safe to call that a miracle as well...That was one heck of an experience there.
