The government monopoly known as the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board has decided to shut down every one of its more than 600 Wine & Spirits stores Tuesday due to Hurricane Sandy.

You don't have anything against bootlegging, right?
"Tri-State Liquors, open all day," was how an employee at the Claymont, Del., store answered the phone Tuesday morning.
