Absenth… Tell me about it… I have heard the stories that its a hallucinogen…and is illegal…blah blah blah But what I want to really know is… I am in a position where I get drug tested freq at the hospital. Is there anything in this that is going to cause me to fail a drug screen? I say this because I have a friend who just came back from Europe with a bottle of it… and I kinda want to try it… More info Please. ---

But I did have it over there in Germany. If it does not say worm wood on the bottle then it’s not real. When I was over there buying it they also had fake stuff on the shelf with the real stuff, I even bought some of that as well as a joke. ---

No, it was Mike (sprfreek) that had it. And I got zero visuals from it, I doubt that many people will. But I did get a slightly different buzzed feeling. ---

It’s pretty strong though isn’t it? Usually way over 100 proof? The whole attraction is that you can’t get it here. I bet kids in Germany claim that Jack is a hallucinogen. ---

But I did get a slightly different buzzed feeling. i got more of a ‘high’ feeling plus a little drinking buzz without the drunkness… rather lovely experience… ive got another bottle, think it needs opening. 🙂 ---
