What a coincidence. I'm attending a party this weekend called "Night of the Green Fairy." They will be serving absinthe as the main drink. Can't wait to try it.

My dad bought some absinthe as soon as they re-legalized it out here in California. (I mean that, too. As soon as he heard, he was in the car on his way to get some.) He was giving it to some of the people at our annual Christmas party. Towards the end of the night, when he was kinda toasty, he announced, "Hell, I've had stronger stuff than this!"My dad is crazy, but I love him.

We had it served like this when we honeymooned in Victoria. I really didn't think it was doing anything to us. I look back at some of the pictures and maybe it was ;-)

Can't wait for the televised Fourth of July from the Esplinade. The first several rows of people are always cranked from drinking all day. With that stuff being legal, holy shite! :)

So some form of "the green fairy" is legal here? Well without the part that makes it famous for apparently driving artists mad... It was mentioned a lot in my 19th Century French painting art history class.

I'd like to try it - but the REAL kind and not the new kind without the hallucinogen that they now have in the States.

Some of my friends smuggled in some absinthe from an Amsterdam trip a few years ago. It was the real stuff and they served it correctly, and it did NOTHING for me. It was so bizarre!
