Harvey Mason, Jr.

In our manifesto we have said that we will focus on reducing the demand for liquor through awareness campaigns. We will also make it an offense to serve liquor to anyone below the age of 23.

Tupac Shakur

I can pick a lock. How do you think I got into my parents' liquor cabinet in middle school?
