           NO TOAST FOR 10/28!

   Wewon't be raising a glass to this date

in history. The Volstead Act was published 

on this day in 1919, essentially beginning

Prohibition oin the United States! A few

years later, on October 28th of 1929, a lot

of people were looking for a drink! That was

the beginning of the stock market crash! Of

course prohibition was repelled in 1933. But

people faced another serious "drinking problem"

in 1942 when the government announced plans

to ration coffee! Of course the effective date

for that decision wasn't until a month later on

November 28 so at least folks had some warning.

Maybe the best way to mark the day is with a

quick nip........of coffee of course! Hope you're

well and that all your NEWS is good!
