  I was out with urlLink Jimbo the other night for his partner's graduation get together. As I was perusing the drinks menu (Which I can't actually partake in because I'm DISEASED!! ) I noticed that they had Absinthe on the list. When it came time to order my non-alchoholic girly drink, I mentioned to the barmaid that I've always wanted to try Absinthe (the colorful drink that make you INSANE!
Seriously, it looks like Dr Herbert West's re-animation serum from the movie Re-Animator) and it's just a shame that you can't get the real, full strength stuff here in Australia, due to the Government's nanny like laws. "Oh no! " she replied, "This is the proper imported stuff. That's why its $13 a shot". My eyes opened wide in delight and I was *this close* to ordering one, until I remembered, I'm DISEASED!.
But no matter. At least I know its there now and urlLink Jimbo and me have made plans to partake of this particular poison at some point in the nearish future. So if a post suddenly appears on here talking about green fairies and how I'm a talking Hippopotamus, just ignore it (like it would be that out of the ordinary anyway).
