Hey Sheila. Getting fully awake from nap. Thankfully caught your Massive Attack story. I can’t compete with that but I saw them on The Mezzanine tour. They literally made me sick with the low end frequencies and volume. Saw them just last year and could not believe they were even louder! In league with Slayer! Hopefully don’t have to wait another 20 years to see them again!

Since international travel isn't really a thing now (had to cancel a spring trip to Hungary), I've been buying booze from around the world that I don't usually get, just to ease the wanderlust (it's worked so far).

I ordered my food en espanol flawlessly, and I forgot gravy (veggie for my rice and beans), is, duh, salsa! I'm such a morona.

"Blue Light Yokohama" is an excellent piece of music, something very eerie about it.

Any particularly unusual acquisitions, Scrappy?

Miss G:

Scrappy, did you ever get any Swiss absinthe? (sorry to be so corny, but it has to do with a loved one. I always wanted it, and so I thought maybe it would be a nice thing) Sorry about your Hungarian trip, good luck for shortly thereafter. . .

I spent many nights in Yokohama, whatever a prepubescent geijin does w/ his friends at night. (I was just happy the school girls petted my blonde hair, saying, "kawaii", and giggle [I was afraid to talk to girls at the time])
  5:20pm
Miss G:

NGH, thank you for sharing your reminiscences! I was in Japan briefly in 1990, a lifelong dream, and in one mountain resort in the bathing room, my platinum blonde hair and tattoo on my shoulder caused quite a stir .. .plus, my too formal Japanese language. (which they taught me at Japan Society NYC)

Scrappy:

Hmm, not sure how unusual they've been, though Mrs. Scrappy usually passes on them.

It really started with Unicum Zwack (the factory was on the list for Budapest), and I've been working my way through different kinds of Slivovitz from different countries like Croatia and Serbia. Got raki last time I was out which finally broke my gag response to anise-flavoured liquor. Not sure what to get next.

Miss G: Nah, never had Swiss absinthe, but now that you mention it, I'm intrigued and will be on the lookout.

@Miss G: i was there from 1986-1989 (I was 10-13 years old, and I was alowed to go out for as long as I wanted (there was no crime), so as long as I got home before the trains stopped running. Having restrictions once I returned back to the States, having restrictions and a curfew, was a big shock).
  5:24pm

Scrappy, it is _exactly_ Unicum Zwack which was our special thing! That is weird! I will look for that one Swiss Bleue that I want to tell you.

Miss G, Zwack is fantastic! And legit medicinal, too. It's a go-to stomachache cure for me.

Ah, it doesn't look like we get La Clandestine here in Ontario. Well, at least I've got absinthe on my mind now. Helps me with where to put my drinking dollar.
