Beer, Beer, Beer
| Several, several years ago, Lenoir City officials
decided the best thing for their city would to have alcohol flowing in
the streets. Liquor, beer, wine, moonshine as long as it's intoxicating,
they want it in the city. Never mind any of the bad effects that come
with it. Ultimately, they did away with all prohibitions on the sale of
alcohol. Not long ago, they even granted a beer permit in the shadow of
the high school. Heck, they even used the power of state and local
government to try to bring a brewery into down town.
But now they have a new outlet for more alcohol that I would never have thought one might see in Lenoir City, a barbershop/beer joint/hoochie-koo. Stopped into a local restaurant the other day. Just noticed the sign on the door next door. Apparently, we're going to have a barber shop that gives free beer and based on their help wanted ad, liquor will be available too. Guess I'm just old school, but I guess I would never have thought of such a place in our town. But when there's no rules and regulations, this is what you get.
