Police Officers are subjecting to DUI charges

It's becoming less and less rare. I was looking over Google for a few days and came across sevaral cases of DUI charges. Fora cop, it normally means losing their career, reputation, jail time and humiliation. I couldn't imagine being thrown in jail by my coworkers. Don't let this happen to you regardless. A DUI is absolutely not what you need nowadays. They're expensive, annoying and time comsuming. Watch yourself out there.

27-year-old wins $88.1 million lottery

Jeffrey Wilson of Kings Mountain, North Carolina won the $88.1 million lottery this week. Every week his father buys tickets from a local gas station and distributes them to his kids. This time, Jeffery picked the right one.

"My dad picked the numbers," Wilson said. "It's numbers that he's picked, he's played them before. He went and bought some tickets and laid them out for us to pick from and I just happened to pick the right one."

Wilson still does not know what he will do with the money, if I may suggest, a celebration sounds like the right move. I would go on vacation and get drunk. Just don't drink and drive anymore because it definitely has its consequences. Now he can afford a permanent driver.

DUI Checkpoints

There will be DUI Checkpoints all over the place this weekend. Police are really cracking down on drunk drivers and are abiding by a zero tolerance rule. Even if you smell like alcohol, it will give them an excuse to bust you. Don't take the risk. Just chill out this weekend, don't drink and drive and save yourself the trouble of getting a DUI.

Here's a list of some prominant DUI Checkpoint cities:

Pamona, CA
Elkhart, IN
Wichita, KS
Miami, FL
Columbus, OH

Good Luck!!

Ft. Lauderdale

If you're in Florida, the place to go this summer is Ft. Lauderdale. You're going to find booze, beautiful people and LOTS of sun. The beach is the best place for all of them as we know, and F.L. has it all. Just don't worry about the surfboard, because most times it won't do you any good. Most waves are small in comparison, and is just not worth your time. If you're from out of state, you can always catch a plane to Miami, which is about 45 mins away. Cops will be policing the streets and shorelines, so watch out for them. As long as you're not driving, you'll be fine. Just don't forget the sunscreen!!

Drunk all the way to court...

This made me burst out laughing when I heard it. Apparently, some guy by the name of James Lee was convicted of a DUI, blowing a BAC of 0.31. Mind you, that's nearly FOUR TIMES the legal limit. While this is unbelievable, it is still not as funny as what happened later in this guy's case.

A few days later in his trial, Lee shows up so drunk, he needed to be hospitalized for being intoxicated. Being drunk is one thing, but so drunk it requires medical attention is ridiculous. I sure hope no one out there is as dumb as this guy.

In any event, before you start drinking this much, you might want to make sure you have a ride home or a floor to pass out on first. Of all the times I've drank, I don't think I can honestly say I would blow a .31. .25 though, that's a different story for another time...

Flashback

I want to go back to the DUI Resource Library and point out a really interesting link that helped me out this weekend. The Three Strikes Law says that multiple DUI offenders will incure harsher penalties. Check out this link again.
