Let's get this party started.
No, I'm not looking to get an early start on the Memorial Day Weekend. I'm talking about Tuesday's ballot question in Brookhaven.
The long-dry borough is bringing on the booze. And it wasn't particularly close. The move to allow sales of alcohol in at least one local eatery passed by a vote of 715-247. You can get all the details here.
Borough officials are making it clear they don't necessarily want a corner bar or saloon, but instead are looking for a nice family restaurant.
Advancements never cease to amaze me.
Next you'll be telling me the state is considering getting out of the booze business, blowing up the LCB and turning the whole operation over to private enterprise. Yeah, you're right. That's too much forward thinking.
I like Brookhaven Borough Council Vice President Ben Linowski's reaction to the vote. He believes it was long overdue.
"By about 45 years," he quipped.
Maybe Tom Corbett should put him in charge of dismantling the LCB.
