For SuperBowl Sunday, Make A Game Plan!

On Maryland roads today, the overhead electronic signs were programmed to read, "Make a game plan.  Hand your keys to a sober driver" or something to that effect.  It's hearkening to the idea of a designated driver who will remain sober while his/her companions consider themselves free to get plastered.

Well, I have what I hope is not a novel idea.  How about this for a "game plan"?  How about everyone behave like a responsible adult and refuse to get into a drunken, inebriated, and incapacitated state?  Is that doable?  Aren't most people capable of some responsible behavior?

Last time I checked, drunkedness, particularly if brought about deliberately or by reckless disregard, is sinful, perhaps mortally so.  We don't know who will win tomorrow, but we know that all will, sooner or later, pass away and into his/her particular judgment.  After that, it's heaven or hell (maybe purgatory before heaven for some of us).  That will be for a very long time.  Let's live with that "end-game" always in mind.
