I turn 18 in approximately 8 hours. I haven't been this excited for a birthday in a long time.

I've decided I'm gonna blow some money on things that I can buy now. Anything else I can buy besides cigarettes and lotto tickets? I know I can buy porn, but you can get that for free. I think I can legally buy a gun, though that a bit out of my price range. I have plenty of guns already, anyway.

Anything else exciting that I can do? What did you do for your 18th?

You can register to vote.
Open a bank account.
Drink on a cruise ship.
A vast majority if jobs would now be available to you if you lived in CA(not that there are any)
You can go to jail.
You can apply for a line of credit.

I spent my 18'th in the can all weekend...:hmm:

So wait, you spent your 18th on the toilet? Or in jail?

A cigar does sound like a great idea. I was gonna buy myself a black and mild or something, 30 bucks seems like a ton for a cigar.

Its true, I can find a job much easier, and I can vote. But I need some fun things to do. A strip club sounds like a good idea, I'm not sure if they are 18 or 21 though, because I know alcohol is served. I'd like to get drunk on my birthday, sucks that its on a monday...

I believe I can buy a gun too. 18, how exciting!

oh please no, those things are worthless...

and ya don't have to spend $30... you can get a decent one for half that...





lessee now, for my 18th (less than a month ago)... ah! I remember. the minute I was 18 I was at a friends house with a few buddies for his sister's 16th birthday party. Because there was leftover ice cream, they gave me a scoop with a candle in it. Then I bought a Romeo y Julieta (I already smoked cigars semi-regularly before that, so I knew what I liked)


then I went to a So-Cal Talkbass get-together in Westminster, that was really cool, got to play an alleva coppolo, which was amazing...

then I got a nice fat rare 18oz steak from Black Angus.

all in all, a nice day.

I beleive I have to register for the draft too, don't I? Now I'm legally responsible for my actions, instead of my parents, jesus, this is such a burden. My little sister called me an old fart just now, this sucks. I've got atleast 20 years before she should be allowed to say that.

We've taken cruises with Carnival and Disney and the drinking age is 21. You can gamble in the casino though.

On my 18th birthday I had a party. We served beer (the drinking age in Quebec is 18), some guests were underage. Nobody got drunk though.

I spent the early part of my music career playing cruise ships it varies by line, carnival had the worst policies ever(for musicans). Best line i ever played for was Holland America Line, beautiful ships, spacious lounges, top shelf liquor, and I actually got to roam the ship freely.
