As I was reading down the posts, you know what? I was thinking the *same* thing right when I got to yours... it made me smile.

As far as this goes, way too much room for interpretation... I always thought that Texas was a rather lax state anyway - who wants to go to a bar and not get drunk? Do you avert the ticket by not having your car at the bar, so you either have to have a DD or call a cab? I'm not too sure about the diving into swimming pools from deadly heights thing... I'd chalk it up to substance assisted Darwin.

Also, it partially is the cops' role to interpret the law. That's why they've got the power to issue warnings. After all, there were many more people drunk in those bars than were arrested...
