You can "party" without alcohol.

And what fun is that? hehe

And with the Ohio standards lowered to
.08%, it makes it almost impossible to "drink legally".

Agreed... around here they tell me that the Lake Patrols don't bother
things that only troll, and that's what we only do if there's been any
drinking on the boat, usually always at night when the lake is empty. The
Phantom Menace II is equipped with a 110 perverter and a blender - frozen
drinks on demand.

My only real fear on a nightime "booze crooze" is that there will be a time
that a "real drunk" will be out late at WOT with no lights and I won't have
the reaction time to power up and hammer it out of HIS way. Remember - my
cousin Tom was killed by a drunk boater who came up on him from behind at
WOT. I don't have a fear of ME trolling around at 1000rpm with a daquerior
or 4 in me at 9 at night, I have a real fear of drunken "yahoos" who are
doing the same thing I am only with the hammer down.

During the day drinking on my boat is minimal to non-existant, dehydration
sucks on a hot afternoon. The one exception being that I might drop a quick
single beer if I'm about to wind up on the wrong end of the tube and wanna
deaden the pain nerves a bit.

And what exactly is the point to clearing (killing) lillies?

Lillies that infest a swim-beach area need to die - that simple.
Two of the gifts that our creator endowed man with are the ability to alter
his environment to suit his needs - and the ability to make fire. Using both
in combo allows rapid defoliation of desired areas.
