Get MADD!

This site offers proof that M.A.D.D. (more precisely M.A.D.D. inc.) is no more than a cash cow temperance movement operating under the guise of a non-profit organization - an organization that relies on fear tactics and even outright lies as weapons to fight for their cause.
A friend once referred to their attempts at a zero tolerance for alcohol as 'legislating people into alcoholism by vilifying them and forcing them to drink alone in the home.'

I offer this information, not to condone the practice but to provide travelers with an idea of what they face.
Here you can find more resources to help you make informed decisions regarding such matters.

In an effort to appear fair and balanced, allow me to present this tool which gives new meaning to the term beer goggles.


"It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues."---Abraham Lincoln

If old Honest Abe is right, my "virtuous" lifestyle should qualify me for canonization.

Canonization or cannabis?

Is that where they give you a cannon?

A cannabis cannon? Sounds like the perfect weapon for crowd control. My D.A.M.M.(Drunks Against Madd Mothers)battalion needs one for our Denver offensive.
