A glass of wine - MUST be RED! It can really add to the mood and experience. Diana Krall never sounded SO good (as she does after a glass or two) :) ...Give me a Shiraz or Shiraz/Cab - thanks. ...The Aussie's have gotten really good at producing some quality vintages.
Anyone ever tried Absinthe? ...Not that anyone would want the after effects, but it sort of bridges the gap between smoke and drink.
Here in Toronto Absinthe is supposedly legal and available (again) – in very diluted form through the LCBO (Liquor Control Board of Ontario). This stuff (at full strength) is supposed to give a hallucinogenic buzz (Served warm - poured over sugar cubes) …BUT it’s also supposed to kick like a mule the next day - credited with a guaranteed hangover from hell. …Still interested? …this is the stuff Vincent Van Goh was supposed to have been drinking when he cut his ear off.
As for Pot, yeah its good, but I hate what smoking does to my lungs. ...Ever try aerobic activity after an 'indulgence'? I always wonder what in the hell I was thinking when the fattie was passed my way.
I’m also in agreement with the statements about pot & legality. …But if you were Anheizer-Bush or Phillip Morris you’d lobby against pot too – who do you think funds the ‘War on drugs”? …Think of the revenue losses the Alcohol and Tobacco industries would lose if pot were legal. You can grow pot at home – but a still, beer , or wine… now that takes a little more effort.
Cheers,
Mike
