Any truth to the idea that in Kentucky a guy with 8 DUI’s qualifies as an AA sponsor?

Thats not counting all the PI's also.

We all hate to see him go to jail but all the neighbors are hoping if he does it will help him. We all pray for him all the time. Every time I went to church someone will remember him in prayer. This may be the way our prayers are answered. The last stretch he pulled in jail helped for a while. He went a while without drinking. He went even longer without driving. His courage finally built back up again. Ive not got a thing aginst people drinking. I will drink a few every once in a while. Bucky takes it to extremes. He will get on drunks for a month at a time everyday. Be drunk by 5 am in the morning. And cant drive a bit sober and thats the first thing he wants to do when he gets a few in him. He accidently burned his house down about 5 years ago. Passed out cooking deer meat. His family lost everything they had. Our community all got together and we all donated money to get materials and build him a new one. Thats how much we all care about him. Were all just hoping he will clean out this time. 

At least it could be worse. You could be in Alabama. These folks can’t drive worth a lick, stone cold sober. The auto insurance rates here prove it. Almost double what they were in Pennsylvania. The utterly insane highway designs contribute. We’ve got a Mazda/Toyota joint venture going in here, and the rumor is that the car’s software goes into “God mode” when you say, “Hey Siri, hold m’beer, Imma try sumpin’.”

My neighbor went to trade days and  just bought a box of around 500 world coins in flips . Its got piles of coins we cant identify. This is one that caught our eye. What is it and whys it say U.S. on it? Thank you for the help. 

Here's a few my Dad left me. Twenties and the ten Centavos ring like silver but they're not coin silver I don't think. Redbook doesn't say but the Peso rings well.

The fineness of the USA/Philippine coins was reduced in 1907 from the original .900 to .800 for the peso and .750 for the fractionals. That's why they may ring differently.

Don't let @VKurtB fool you.  Pennsylvania drivers leave a lot to be desired.  They need to go to Alaska and get a course in Winter driving.  Two inches of snow and the highways are cleged with wrecks.  My sister, a born and bred Pennsylvanian, is the worst driver I've ever seen.  I wish she would convert to being Amish and drive a horse and buggy  but then we'd probably end up with horse steaks for supper!

Lol. Sounds like my sisters driving. She usually has me back her car out of the driveway.
