With names like 'Gasolina' and 'Sangriiia' (which sounds like what you would call it once the alcohol kicked in), you loving bet those things are strong.

The Latin market I do most of my shopping at (used to sell?) sells frozen liquor popsicles in little coolers near the checkout stands. They also routinely set up a tequila table that passes out free shots of booze the way other stores give out sausage samples. I didn't see the liquorsicles or the alcotable when I went a few days ago. Maybe that poo poo got kiboshed.

There's a Cuban place in town that serves drinks in ziplock bags. It seemed like the weirdest thing when I got one

BBC News posted:"There was one man who installed the lights and within a month he had saved enough to pay for the essential things for his child, who was about to be born. Can you imagine?" he says. #lifehacks by definition aren't supposed to make your life better by letting you save money. They're supposed to highlight your laziness in a first world country.

Yeah, googling "deck prism" shows a lot of skylight applications not on ships. Still cool if you have the roof for it and no concern for your property value.

I saw a table like that at a liquor store in Massachusetts a couple weeks ago, they were promoting a new kind of rum and basically handing out shots, it was pretty awesome, especially when my girlfriend didn't like it so I got most of hers too. We didn't try coming around more than once though it wasn't that busy and they probably wouldn't have let us.

Then again your liver metabolizes ethanol into acetaldehyde, which isn't good for you either.

Pray for me now and at the hour of my death, which I hope is soon. Amen. Also I once literally saw a doctor hand a guy a bottle of 151 and say "Start drinking. Now." After he tried to kill himself with something containing methanol. It was hilarious (after the fact). When you're not at a hospital you work with what you got I guess.
