You’ve heard about pop quizzes. This is an adult beverage quiz. For those who have never crossed the Mason-Dixon Line, pop is a children’s beverage.
Question 1: Why were the ABC Stores among the only businesses open when the radio announcers were telling everybody to travel only if they must, to avoid the icy roads?
- The state is aware that being under the influence can be conducive to hypothermia, and it wants to create jobs for medical professionals.
- The state was hoping purchasers would consume on the road, thus creating jobs for highway troopers.
- The state was primarily concerned with creating jobs for ABC Store workers.
- The ABC Store employees were so busy losing inventory, they were not aware of the weather conditions.
Question 2: How do I know the ABC Stores were open?
- Like everybody else, when I heard about the ice storm, I went out looking for one – to generate revenue to educate people about drinking responsibly, of course.
- The weather reports almost always overestimate snow danger, and I was waiting for all who slam on their brakes every time they see a patch of black pavement to get home.
- I have been in so many accidents, it isn’t possible for my insurance rates to increase.
- I consider work a “have to” thing.
