Ichi-Go Ichi-E
Erik Guzman January 23rd, 2008
On this week's [ping], Steve Chastain from Stupid Church People.com stopped by to catch up with me, Sharon, Jordo, and Dan.
We talked about not being tripped up by our past, living in the moment, the People Project, and an absinthe drink called the Aunt Roberta (reported to be "the world's strongest cocktail").
Use one of the links below to listen.
Regarding the Aunt Roberta, apparently there's some dispute over whether or not it is in fact "the strongest," but hear me now and believe me later…it's strong. Here's the info on the Aunt Roberta from The QuarterMexican that I talked about on the show:
"It turns out this cocktail has an interesting history. It was invented in the 1800s by a mulatto prostitute who was running a bootleg drinks shack. Apparently, she stumbled upon it when drunk and was never able to get exactly the right measures again. One of her patrons took the recipe to New York and got rich selling it in his bar. Roughly 34 people died while drinking at Aunt Roberta's place during the two years it was open. (She also served homemade moonshine and it was a pretty rough crowd.)"
If the history of debauchery's not your thing, here's that link to the Feed 'em Dummy project. You can help out some people in need.
[ping] has something for everyone. Check out the show below, then join us for the live stream on Tuesday at 4 ET.
