MJADGPIAWTOMV was more like it... Mexican Junior And Dave Get Plastered In Atlanta With The Occasional Music Video! and BTW, MJ says he feels like hes gonna puke all weekend, but never does, even though he gets plastered and eats greasy food every night, _UNTIL_ we are bout to leave, and he's just standing there talking, and suddenly turns his head and spews on the ground, and everyone is all like "The Fuck?"

1) Carlos, how many ugly girls?
2) Do they sell Red Bear in the US?

Good god people! I didn't get any ugly girls! At least not on camera anyway :P

THANKS AWA PUNCH!
Wha?? I didn't know you ran off to puke! And I had such high drinking standards set for you! In the end I wish I hadn't finished your punch. I haven't had a hangover like that in a LONG time. Though I suppose I was already doomed at that point anyhow.

All I can say is ABSINTHE!!! AD is outta control. Thank god I was still to ill to have more than a sip of that stuff, I prolly would've ended up seeing more than just green faeiries. Ugh. Toxic ectoplasm.

Your one to talk. He gave me a whole glass of ABSINTHE all to myself. He told me that it had some kind of special herb in it.

I think it was Zabet who later told me "Oh it has Marijuana in it" :shock:


I quote AD when he told me this afterwards:

"Your going to get a high feeling that your drunk but at the same time your going to be relaxed as if you just smoked marijuana" :shock:


ABSINTHE + James's AWA Punch = ONE HELL OF A GREAT TIME!!!

Of course unlike Jessica, I remembered to drink plenty of fluids.
Speaking of which...are you feeling better jessica? You looked liek shit at the AWA Expo/Pro Awards. Hope everythign was ok :D

Yes, I felt and looked like complete shit at the pro-awards. I was surprised I even made it there.

PUKE STORY:

When we got back to the hotel at god knows what hour on Friday, Paizuri tried to get me to drink a lot of water. I think I managed one glass before I passed out.
Saturday morning I thought my head was going to explode. I somehow managed to lose all my Excedrin (which I never leave the house without). Then, for the first time since my 21st birthday, I felt that horrible need to rush to the bathroom. Unlike Hsien, I managed to make it to the toilet. But it really didn't matter since I had hardly eaten anything the day before and ended up having the dry heaves. Yes, I know it's gross. So I downed a ton of water. Puked all the water up a half hour later. Laid down 'till 3pm at which time Paizuri reminded me that the pro-awards were at 4. Somehow managed to survive showering, getting ready and walking over to the con.

Someone had aspirin on them - whoever you are THANK YOU! That helped a ton. And by the time the Pro award peeps had to take to the stage I was able to stand without assistance.

I felt mostly OK at Iron Chef, but I wasn’t going to taking any chances with the absinthe. I took a sip just cuz I didn’t know how many chances I’d have in my life to try it. To me, it tasted like a mix of really strong sake and rubbing alcohol. LOL And no, there isn’t marijuana in it, I believe it gets it’s small hallucinogenic effects from something called Wormwood (but don’t quote me on it). The stuff is like 75% alcohol anyway, so even without the wormwood you’d be drunk. Maybe we can find a recipe for a magical absinthe punch concoction next year! ::puke::

It does get it from wormwood, but the alcohol has a different purpose other than to just get you just plastered, it pulls the mind altering drug out of the wormwood, and concentrates it in the drink. Absinthe production (not consumption) is illegal in alot of states, but the south seems to hold on to the idea of allowing anyone to make it, thats why the hell you see it all the time in Loisiana, especially New Orleans.

I'd heard interesting things about the absinthe, but my recoil-and-hiss reaction to all things licorice kept me away... I appreciated the offer though 8)

Ian needs to bring more of that stuff next year.

Since its him and Hsien for Iron Chef next year (UK vs US) that Absinthe would work wonders as a secert ingredient for both of them.

I wonder what type of things they coudl edit with that stuff in their systems :twisted:
