Today marks the 75th anniversary of the Twenty-first Amendment to the Constitution.

"So what?" You might say.

Well the Twenty-first Amendment repeals the Eighteenth Amendment.

"Yawn," you grumble.

It ended Prohibition! Made the manufacture, sale, transport, import or export of intoxicating liquors legal again!

Yay!

Back when I lived in Los Angeles, my buddy Mike and I always threatened to have a Repeal Day party. We never did.

Maybe next year I'll invite him to Maine for one of our tasty local brews ...
