    I love me some black jellybeans.
    Why does this not surprise me? Anything that leads to good poopin' should be popular with the Globule. Again, I have to wonder if we are somehow related.

        Much more refined tasting than ouzo, and a bit more complex.

                        While not totally unusual, this thread got around to breasts before i got to comment, but i'm going to chime in anyway... I first had it in Prague in 2003 with some Czech dude we had met in a bar. I managed to bring a bottle back, it's called "Hills Absinth" (still have the bottle). It's not a flavor I would enjoy sipping, but when you're in your 20's backpacking around Europe, well.... There are a couple being distilled here in Portland, Oregon. Trillium, and Marteau, are two that are made in Portland, and trying to help create a buzz (pun intended!) here. I got a small taster of Trillium, but haven't drank it yet. It's pretty pricey. Also, if you're ever in Portland, there's a little bar called Secret Society that I would recommend. They have absinthe, and absinthe cocktails. Check it out, it's a cool little place.

                          I've noticed some absinthe bars popping up here and there: http://sanfrancisco.about.com/b/2008/03/31/a-new-green-hour-in-san-francisco.htm Guess it's the trendy thing of the moment. *shrug* Sure beats those dumbass oxygen bars some years back.

                            Kylie Minogue is also POCKET SIZED. Like 4'11'' or something. And my green fairy of choice has been Nyquil lately. The other night I dreamed that I went on vacation with the family from Big Love and last night I had a weird dream somehow involving gummi bears, stealing a van, running, spying on a guy in my parking lot, the fall of Troy (turned out to be a playground), kicking my boyfriend's other girlfriend out of the house and checking the mail.

                                It's the Nyquil. And that's with half a dose. Usually I don't remember my dreams, and if I do, they're about, like, balancing my checkbook.
