I drank damn near a full bottle and spent the next three days soaking in the bathtub with my heel covering the drain (cork style). Every time a train would go by my head would explode, but it was the only way to survive the event. I still drink the stuff, but not as often. That was NOT a pleasant experience. I don't even remember how I ended up in the bath tub.

Live and learn, huh? I don't know how you got in the tub either. Are you saying being in the tub helped? You were staying in a place near a train track? I drank mescal in my younger days, we bought it in Mexico, it really seemed to be a nice high with very little hangover, I never drank a whole bottle though, whew!

It took three days. The water got cold. I turned on hot water with my other foot once in a while. I slept most of the time. AND, I STILL had a hangover three days later. I'm thinking about a .42 BAC here. I like tequila.

Hey, I have a question though.

Has anybody ever had absinthe? Do they sell this stuff? What is the deal - do you mix it with something? Shove it in the fridge and do a small cold shot?

It doesn't have opium in it and it doesn't have the woodworm chemical, but it is green. You drink it with sugar added.

Because I think that the stuff they sell in the USA won't have that quality. It is kinda pricey and from what I remember, it was worth it, just the once

They were kind of floating around saying weird things.

I figured the stuff would be pricey. I was just kind of curious.

Can't find the wine bottle or my pants and the cats were standing on my face when I woke up.

Thank god for the bloody mary.
