Law, Life

Some big news in my local New Jersey area. 110 teens were busted by police for consuming alcohol at a post-prom party. Not a big deal you say? What if I told you the bust was in Vermont?

On tap – 18 kegs of beer, five cases of beer, and 16 bottles of Vodka.

It has come to light today that the alcohol was most likely purchased locally in New Jersey and then transported to the rented properties in Vermont. It seems like a lot of work to get drunk, but I guess upper-middle class kids have the money and motivation.

Randolph is getting a lot of attention as it was also revealed yesterday that the chaperone of an 18 year-old high school cheerleader that in 2004 fell to her death in Hawaii was ordered to pay $690,000 to her family and estate. She was drinking at the time of her death.

    I'd probably drink myself to death if I lived in a state where spiking one's hair and painting one's body orange is considered high culture.

    But if you were 18, would your parents sue your hairstylist and your fake-tan purveyer? That's BS.

    New Jersey: where every teen aspires to look like an Oompa-Loompa pimp.

    Not a joke site. One of my wife's co-workers is a member.

    Falling out windows seems to be some kind of Randolph curse. A girl who graduated ahead of me from Randolph High managed to fall out a window at Cornell (soberly). She survived the 4 story drop onto her back for what it is worth.
