My Turn to Be the D.D.

by Ted Mooney

There is almost nothing I like as much as just passing time sitting around a campfire or at a party with friends -- drinking beer, munching chips, casually chatting, and drinking more beer. Once in a while it's my turn to be the Designated Driver, and it can be less fun--especially if the others pick that night to drink heavily and get giddy.

I haven't been on these Washington junkets that are all the rage, where platers go to the seat of power. I'm told that power is intoxicating. As D.D., I'm finding it to be so. They come back giddy.
