So my dad invites me to a special members-only soiree in Yorba Linda, CA tonight, the grand opening of the Christmas-decorated East Room replica at the Richard Nixon Library. They also have the miniature White House

Free refreshments and....WINE were promised. Since I wan't driving, I figured to have as much fun as possible among the old money crowd I expected to encounter. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
My dad was slightly freaked out as we drove there (he drove); he was worried they were gonna ask for ID (the invite was in his friend's name. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Dad: "Now remember, you are Ron Embree, and I am Norm Embree"
Me: [img]/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif[/img] "They're not gonna card us, Dad!"
So, of course, we walk right in, and the nice old ladies direct us towards the East Room. We got there right at 6 PM, so it wasn't that crowded, and all the refreshment tables were fully stocked. I grabbed some cookies and what I thought was a cup of sparkling water, but turned out to be white wine; I was so thirsty I guzzled it right down! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
