Mr. Brautigan, just how many bottles of absinthe
did it take to convince Baudelaire he was a wide-
mouth ass with nine lives and, one of them, a monkey?
Et vous, Monsieur Baudelaire,
Êtes-vous tout à fait sûrs que vous n'avez signé rien?
Tea, anyone?

This is an enigma, wrapped in a shroud, surrounded by mystery...I'll take two sugars please!

Le jour de philosophie du monde, l'anyof nous peut-il être sûr que nous sommes qui nous sommes ?
I drank real Absinthe in Prague a few years back...I'm still recovering.
The answer is 2 in every 1...

A new and improved Absinthe has hit the market, Rob, less deadly to the mind I hear,
and no, I don't suppose we do from one minute to the next, ever evolving as we are.

But isn't the point of absinthe to blow the mind and give us visions that inspire great literature?
I don't mind the hallucinations, it's the hangovers...

Trying absinthe is on my bucket list, Rob. Thanks for the warning about morning-after queeziness. We'll see about the great literature that's supposed to follow.

Dear Maggie,
A lady in her green evening dress should have as company another lady in a green evening dress. You in one and I in the other one day shall partake together of virgin sips of absinthe. The limelight at the close of day and the warmth it brings compared with the concomitant swallow will confirm or repudiate whether there is a difference between a glass of absinthe and a sunset.
Yes, yes, blah blah blah. A fancy way to say, "Me too!"
