...think there's an argument to be made for making moonshine legal? It quickly drifts into something that should be controlled in some way. The stuff that I did get from a nip joint in southern Virginia was poison. Clearly. I had a friend get it for me. He had to go to a place he didn't want to go to, and he said he was disappointed because the guy he bought it from sometimes cuts it with bleach.

Now if only they could get rid of that page 10 picture of her, clad in a flimsy lilac number, leaning on a pillar and looking for all the world like a jobbing actress in a karaoke clip...
...their worst, museums are stuffy and swarming with tourists - and what's with the glowering security guards? At sculpture parks, on the other hand, you get room to roam, fresh air and touch-friendly installations. Finding them isn't much of a problem. "There are countless amazing sculpture parks and gardens out there," says Cameron Cartiere, an arts-policy lecturer at the University of London's Birkbeck College.
