The next time you grab a quart of Bud from your friendly Missouri stop-n-go, don't be surprised if it's warm as
panther piss. A state lawmaker is trying to combat drunk driving by restricting how cold beer can be when it's sold at
groceries and convenience stores. Senator Bill Alter feels that if beer is sold at temperatures of 60 degrees and
warmer, people would be less likely to hop in their car and drink it. Apparently the idea came from a local
fifth-grader participating in an educational program about lawmaking. Not surprisingly, a group of convenience store
owners have come out against the proposed bill, as have other lawmakers.Posts with tag senator
