drinking and driving is not a crime

if you were nice and didn't appear to drunk they usually made you park your car and tell you to call someone to drive you home. but often they would just leave your car where it was and take you to jail for the night. if they didn't feel like doing paper work, they would let you out after a few hours. if you were a total asshole to them then you got your fine and had to go to court. that's my understanding of it. -

In California if you were right near .08 (which I think they lowered it to 0.06 now) you could argue the calibration of the device. you may not get let go or have it dropped but you could get a wet reckless. which still shows as a DUI but only 500 dollars and no community time.
I been sober for 5 years.
I hope to stick with this. this is why I don't want to go to a bar with ACP. I'm drinking sodas while this guy's throwing back ale.
I know it will be "have one.. just one" then I fall off the wagon. -

So here is my only problem.
First off. He seems really cool but cryptic at times.
I talk about shit in the mindset of someone who has lost a lot of time and forgetting what year it is. I mean I know it's 2019 but I'm talking to him about shit that he was just a kid or knows nothing of it at all. and some of it films that didn't seem that long ago to me. He said he never saw "Eyes wide shut". I think he was maybe 6 when it came out.
but then again< i didn't see it in the theater I saw it a few years later on DVD.
Then again my Parents had friends 20 years or so younger than them. Maybe I just need to accept Adults are adults and if they can keep adult like then they're friend worthy. otherwise they're someone you are friends with and mentor.
And ACP could mentor me in electrical knowledge. I someday want to build a solar panel kit in my car if I have to live out of it full time. I saw the panels but don't know shit about the equipment that goes between it and what I'm guessing will be a truck battery or two.
He seems to have had a good education in cool redneck gear. a knowledgeable survivalist. I just don't want to fall off the wagon. and anything I have to offer him in advice is kind of old man talk. -
