Yep....not good....just a bad use of a good alcohol. Still, it's a novel experience.

It's quite possibly one of the foulest concoctions you'll ever taste. It's good for a laugh if you've got an unsuspecting friend you'd like to abuse. Beyond that, it's a waste of perfectly good alcohol.

Hell, it's a waste of perfectly good lime juice!

Ughh.. our friend who got us to try it claimed to acutally like the stuff. She's kind of weird anyway, though.

This is not to say that I don't like her. She's weird in a good way!

I'm a classic old schooler. As a matter of fact, to a fault, I don't seem to like anything until it has proven itself over time. I like old movies and old music. I have to force myself to try new things. I am a sucker for 60's doo wop, early 60's tv shows and cinema. And French movies, I really like French movies. And even Italian ones. Sophia Loren, yummy.

Bruce - you should check out the Time Life Doo Wop DVD series. They have about 10 of them. Jerry Butler hosted a number of PBS shows from Pittsburgh over the last few years. They went out and scoured the country looking for the groups from the late 50s/early 60s. Wherever they found them, they grabbed the ones that were still alive (at least I think they were all alive), dried them out, dressed them up & turned them loose on the stage. The whole thing turned out great and most of the groups had filled in the dead guys with replacements. I was amazed at how well they did their old songs.

The Diamonds (Little Darlin'), The Drifters, The Tokens (Lion Sleeps Tonight), Jay and the Americans, The Shirelles - the list goes on. Lotsa balding or gray haired folks who were clearly of retirement age, but they could still get it done. Check it out. My wife and I still watch the things on a regular basis.
