The real problem is knowing that alcohol is still in your system 3 months later. Just one more reason not to drink at all.
Is it school rules to not drink? If so, what's the problem with testing for it?

They're testing hair, which ends up accumulating traces of whatever was in your body as it grows. It also offers an easy way for someone to evade the tests. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

At my previous employ, when a co-worker was offered a permanent position, he had to pass a drug test first. He maintained a regulatively short hair style.
Upon arrival at the testing facility, he was offered two choices. He quickly removed his shirt.

I doubt the trace of alcohol from communion wine would show positive in the kinds of tests they are performing. They are probably looking for long-term byproducts from metabolizing large amounts of alcohol, possibly in terms of liver and/or kidney enzyme levels.
I imagine this school has a worse-than-average alcohol or drug problem, and this is their effort to get a handle on it. Catholic schools are inherently private, and can set their own conditions for admittence and continued attendance. With that said, if the parents don't agree with the conditions, they can send their kids elsewhere.

Yup -- and not try to argue against the iron-clad no-refunds policy.
Why do you think they didn't announce this in May or June?

We sent our daughter to Catholic school for grades K-8. All of the Catholic schools in our area have essentially the same policy, first tuition payment of the year isn't due until school starts.

Be grateful I read your post a couple of times. I almost interpreted your term 'bitch' as referring to my daughter, rather than your previous post.

I didn't even know you had a daughter.
Have you informed her mother?

What part of "Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific help please use the programming forums." did you assume did not apply to you?

I would try one of the programming forums instead of posting here. Note the message in bold about asking programming questions in the Lounge.

Here we make you talk for the whole day. You'll become unproductive & doomed. It's only for the people who have earned enough money & for slackers like me.

I wonder how you get enough money from being a slacker...

Nah, my version had a couple of codicils added.

rofl! The matter is out, Anyway! 
At least don't expose the MOU we have with Chris now. Don't even say to your wife that we get paid by Chris through weekly pay cheques for lounging out here.
