ALCOHOL ABUSE!!!
Actually, she abuses food and television airwaves and all sorts of other things, too, but there is a special place in hell full of belligerent drunks who can't hold their liquor waiting just for her.

We went out for Mexican food last night and ended up being seated in the bar (which was fine with us). We noticed a tequila bottle on the top shelf of the bar that looked like it had been made to be converted into a bong when the tequila was gone, with stoppered glass tubes coming out of the top and the side. I couldn't read the label, but it looked like the name started with a "P" - have you heard of this one MM? It cracked me up - like the tequila alone wouldn't mess you up enough!

That sounds vaguely familiar- I remember a few years ago seeing a photo somewhere online of that stuff. I can't remember what the significance of the bottle design was (I think it was some arcane, quasi-scientific BS), but I seem to recall someone joking about how when the Tequila was gone, you clearly could use the bottle as a bong.  |

The name was "Primero" or something like that.

I have a college friend coming in for the weekend, and I will put this on our agenda. Thanks for the nudge, MM!

The MM named a drink after me!!  Incredibly apropos configuration, too, considering Wild Turkey is the very first alcoholic substance I ever drank. |

That's really awesome! Nicely done, Dr. Maestro.
O, is there a story that goes along with that first Wild Turkey experience?

Not a riveting one.  When I was 14, I had a mischievous friend whose grandparents didn't lock their liquor cabinet. The Result ------->  |

Heh. When I ran across that recipe (in an old bar guide that my father found at a flea market, naturally), I remember thinking, "If Oracle ever sees this one, he's gonna laugh." I didn't think it was a bad drink actually.  |

I can't wait to try one. I'm gonna have to turn Hooterville's meager bar scene upside-down to find a place that has all the fixin's. Oddly enough, we have tiny bars but HUGE liquor stores. If push comes to shove, I'll make one myself.  |

As far as I'm concerned, it's always better to have big liquor stores than bars. The best experiences I've had in bars have been in the small places.  |
