Has there been a thread where people post pictures of their Absinthiana?
I'd love to see how other people are drinking.

Just a pleasant way to spend an evening.
Some folks may cringe each time I use the term "Booze" regarding these high quality drinks.
I mean no offense. There are bottles of extraordinary booze out there. I've tasted a few. Relax.

That is my life. Backwards.
I did get another drinking accessory today... But you will need to travel to LA to appreciate it.

I can make my own beer bong, thank you....and only my wife sees my gear
It's not whether the glass is half empty or half full, it's whether you are pouring or drinking.

Papa H,

That's what you get when you collect for 10 years. The antiques are the best to drink out of. The weight and feel hasn't been matched by the repros yet.

Hectma,
I put the fountain together, but have to admit that I got the idea from a post I read on one of the boards. It's a mouthwash dispenser from Lowe's Hardware mounted on top of the matching toothbrush holder with double-sided foam tape. Very simple, built in about 5 minutes and works very well. About $35 This board gets the credit for a newbie having a good looking selection of bottles.

Papa H,
Good lord, that must've held a lot of toothpaste before you re-purposed it.
Sand,
I don't know whether to be in awe of the muscle tone or the patriotic (albeit UK?) bikini bottom. Or is there more 'splaining to do?
