Anyone ever try this?

1. Take a large shotglass and turn it upside down
2. Fill the bottom indentation with Cuervo
3. Lift to face.
4. Snort it up a nostril
5. Enjoy as Cuervo instantly seeps straight to the brain.

Warning: Do not try this at home. This was done by Professional Drinkers at College in their prime. The tolerable limit is unknown, possibly forgotten.

Nope we did it for "fun". Although we also played a lot of a$$ho!e in college. Once, Two Freshmen who decided to play with Bottom shelf shnapps & tequila ended up going to the Hospital. I think it had something to do with the location of the college - Potsdam, NY. As cold and isolated as the Arctic circle.

1. To remove a bandage painlessly, saturate the bandage with vodka. The solvent dissolves the adhesive.

2. To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers, fill a trigger-spray bottle with vodka, spray the caulking, let set five minutes and wash clean. The alcohol in the vodka kills mold and mildew.

3. To clean your eyeglasses, simply wipe the lenses with a soft, clean cloth dampened with vodka. The alcohol in the vodka cleans the glass and kills germs.

4. Prolong the life of razors by filling a cup with vodka and letting your safety razor blade soak in the alcohol after having. The vodka disinfects the blade and prevents rusting.

5. Spray vodka on vomit stains, scrub with a brush, then blot dry.

6. Using a cotton ball, apply vodka to your face as an astringent to cleanse the skin and tighten pores.

7. Add a jigger of vodka to a 12-ounce bottle of shampoo. The alcohol cleanses the scalp, removes toxins from hair, and stimulates the growth of healthy
hair.

8. Fill a sixteen-ounce trigger-spray bottle and spray bees or wasps to kill them.

9. Pour one-half cup vodka and one-half cup water in a Ziplock freezer bag, and freeze for a slushy, refreshable ice pack for aches, pain, or black eyes.

10. Fill a clean, used mayonnaise jar with freshly packed lavender flowers,
fill the jar with vodka, seal the lid tightly and set it in the sun for three days. Strain liquid through a coffee filter, then apply the tincture to aches and pains.

11. Make your own mouthwash by mixing nine tablespoons powered cinnamon with one cup vodka. Seal in an airtight container for two weeks. Strain through a
coffee filter. Mix with warm
water and rinse your mouth. Don't swallow.

12. Using a Q-tip, apply vodka to a cold sore ! to help it dry out.

13. If a blister opens, pour vodka over the raw skin as a local anesthetic that also disinfects the exposed dermis.

14. To treat dandruff, mix one cup vodka with two teaspoons crushed rosemary, let sit for two days, strain through a coffee filter and massage into your
scalp and let dry.

15. To treat an earache put a few drops of vodka in your ear. Let set for a few minutes. Then drain. The vodka will kill the bacteria that is causing pain in your ear.

16. To relieve a fever, use a washcloth to rub vodka on your chest and back as a liniment.

17. To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka.

18. Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting.

19. Pour vodka over an area affected with poison ivy to remove the urushiol oil from your skin.

20. Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth. Allow your gums to absorb some of the alcohol to numb the pain. If all else fails, just turn the bottle
up and drink it, nothing will matter anymore anyway!

The Russians are doing a pretty good job of vodka consumption just drinking it. They don't need any more ideas!

I don't think I've ever had gin.

My cousin's husband spent a couple of years writing a book on Poland. He brought back some slivovitz that had been produced in the area he visited to interview people. He brought it out once when I was visiting them. The stuff smelled awful, like it was full of fusel oils or methanol or whatnot. I wasn't brave enough to drink it.

My cousin used it as a weedkiller.

I honestly have never made The Phone call, and I know where the rug burns on my knees came from - bonus was she wasn't scary in the morning. Unfortunatly, she had a different opinion of me.

Slivovitz is grand stuff. If we ever go hiking, we're taking some. Also, you need to get a gin and tonic. It's a classic drink for a reason. The stuff kicks ass!

What's a "coyote date"

Gin & Tonic - nothing better in the summer.

That's when you wake up and your arm is under your date... and she's so scary you'd rather chew your arm off than wake her up. Kinda like a coyote in a trap...

Don't tell you never heard that one, LOL



Ah, yes... Ginnan Tonnix at the beach while flying stunt kites. Extremely large fun!

LOL! I see, Tilt. If you've never been the opposite of a coyote date then you've never scored well above your means! I wasn't upset that she wanted nothing to do with me because I've done it and she was and probably still is the hottest thing I've been with!

At one party and long time ago and while drinking Cuervo and Heinikins (bad spelling) I had the sudden urge to eat carrots. Before too long, I ate the whole bag then I finished the bottle.

What came up was not pretty.
