Sorry, Charlie.
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/04/21/newser-powdered-alcohol/7960361/ NEW YORK (AP) — Don't expect powdered alcohol to hit store shelves anytime soon.
A product called "Palcohol" gained widespread attention online in recent days after it was reported that the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau approved the powdered alcohol, including vodka and rum varieties. But a representative for the federal bureau, Tom Hogue, said in an email to The Associated Press late Monday that the approvals were issued in error.
Hogue did not immediately respond to requests for further details, including how the error occurred. In an email message, Palcohol's parent company Lipsmark said "there seemed to be a discrepancy on our fill level, how much powder is in the bag." It said it will resubmit the labels for approval.
....
Robert Lehrman, who runs a beverage law website that initially reported on the product, noted that Palcohol had to have gone through an extensive process before reaching the label approval stage.
"An oversight of this nature does not ring true to me," Lehrman said in a phone interview. He suggested that the bureau may have heard back from lawmakers wanting more information on the powdered alcohols.
Sounds like some constituents got upset.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.
Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!
They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder. Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.
