Good afternoon Woods!!
While you are all busy goofing off and humping, I motion the following should also be observed and celebrated today.. You don't have to abide by the 3.2 part, but it was the start of something good!!

On March 22, 1933, President Franklin Roosevelt signed into law the Cullen–Harrison Act, legalizing beer with an alcohol content of 3.2% (by weight) and wine of a similarly low alcohol content. On December 5, 1933, ratification of the Twenty-first Amendment repealed the Eighteenth Amendment. However, United States federal law still prohibits the manufacture of distilled spirits without meeting numerous licensing requirements that make it impractical to produce spirits for personal beverage use.[13]

My SAE pigtail is fused and I ran one to my saddle bag on my Road King to keep my phone charged and split it to another cable I ran up under my tank to the handlebars to run a GPS

Everything worked perfectly and split it again in the bag to charge my phone and my wife's in the saddlebags.

So three items (GPS + 2 cell phones) never blew the breaker.

Think so.. Probably why "spring water" only flows from the deepest hollers and doesn't have a lil' sticker on it..
Regardless, I will shortly begin to do my part to celebrate the first step towards abolishing prohibition. Hell, I better plan on doing Tracy's part too, seems he is tired and under the weather. I will endeavour to persevere.

Baker, standing in during Tracy's time of duress is a large and noble gesture. I salute you.
