It also makes a non-toxic gnat and mosquito repellent. There are many other uses

I am not going to be worried by anything less then dead vermin in the drink.

And I'm not worried if the "vermin" happens to be a worm in my tequila ...

The electrons Lucy used to create and distribute this article contribute more than her fair share to climate change.

It’s not so much a matter of courage as it is a matter of having consumed most of the tequila first ...

Health standards apply to bars
as much as a restaurant. Though
it may not look like it from all
the cigarette butts thrown in
the urinals. I owned a bar & grill
in Florida. The once a month
inspections included the lounge.
Bartenders in my establishment
we’re routinely told to rinse
any accoutrement included with
any drink. Health inspectors
like to imbibe, and would sit at the
bar, getting inebriated, taking
notes. They took great pride in
finding any infraction that would
shut a business down.

I think these people should just kill themselves. How can they live with themselves exhaling pollution all day?
