Oh no, I hope you don't mean a regular refrigerator! It should be a crime for people not to own a proper wine chiller. Vinocide should get you a nickel in a federal pen.

Home, people.  The best place. And I just hope its over before bedtime.  If Obama wins, I'm happy.  If McCain wins, I kind of hope the conservative, right wing warnings come true and we sink into a period of cold, brutal socialism marked by censorship, breadlines, and despotic rule.  And then we are forced to fight back with nothing but molotov cocktails and the hunting rifles we were forced to bury in our back yards when the Obama regime took power.  And then, when the smoke clears, that beacon of democracy, Sarah Palin, rises from the ashes and leads us to freedom again.  It will be like "Red Dawn".  But with Sarah Palin.  That would be awesome.

Isn't that sort of on the illegal side? Or, at least, it use to be. Yet, I can fully understand the desire to meet up and sulk or cheer as you anxiously watch the returns as though it's some sports event.

What law would it be breaking?

I would bet that Party City has them getting ready for New Year's. Don't know where the closest one to you is but you may very well have to go out into the burbs.

Vinocide. Ha! I like that word.
 
 Neither for a good champagne. It destroys the delicate bubble. Ice it down, baby, and wrap a linen napkin around that succulent nectar of the French gods!

At one time it was illegal for bars to be open during election time. But even so, if it's all after the polls close, it wouldn't be an issue. It had to do with preventing unscrupulous practices of getting people drunk then they going in to vote for whomever the provider chooses. Think they may have lifted that law a number of years ago though and not sure if it was a state to state thing or national.
