Also, they made real, basement-brewed Absinthe legal in the US?
and yes, the FDA or somethign recently gave licenses to two distilleries to make absinthe according to traditional recipes. i think they did so because some eggheads found out that all the hallucination bullshit was just psychosomatic. the fuckups drinking it and claiming all these mystical experiences were really just hammered.
i have drank quite a bit of absinthe in my time and never got any sort of hallucinatory effect. a friend said that you have to drink two drinks each day for a week to let the thujone build up in your system, then on saturday, really let 'er rip on a bender to get your van gogh vision. unfortunately, absinthe tastes like the devils piss and i would rather just pass out with a 40 in my hand than carry out that experiment.
the stuff i had back in my goth-club days was what hellion is talking about - basement brewed, wrapped in a towel, and almost as much wormwood oil as booze. it gave me some serious hyper sensory hallucinations, which i have never gotten from any other type of alcohol-related activity.
the stuff i was passing out at g's last house party wasn't as good as it had been billed to be, but i have my eye on a spanish bottle...
although the first i ever read of absinthe was a story in maxim in the late 90s about buying bathtub shit from some hippies in brattleboro.
the brits pretty much use whitling as a classification of yearling spawning fish, the us, we pretty much only use that to refer to trout, probably because the french were the first ones to coin the name in canadia when they got here.
