Cool pictures; is the tunnel the one in MSP? I have only walked through the ORD one.

Snuggle · January 12th, 2008, 21:26

It's the one in DTW. My first time in one of those. It was pretty crazy with all those flashing lights and sounds. Reminded me of a time... ahhh nvmd!

Duh, I meant DTW not MSP, thanks. I've been through MSP 100 times; I never went through the DTW one.

ORD needs to bring the cosmic music back to their tunnel.

Ahhh yes the fog at BHB.

N283S is the Global Express in the background, Its for sale if anyone is looking.

That 1900 panel looks very familiar (I fly King Air's). I figured that there would be more differences than that.

Almost identical with some small differences. It's pretty much a bigger King Air. I hear the type used to be the same for the 1900 and king air 350. I know Doug used to fly the 1900, I wonder if he has that type in both.

Nice photos Snuggy! At first glance, I thought it was ORD too.

Always wondering when they designed that tunnel at DTW what the engineers were somoking...

What airport did you see the absinth at?

ZachH · January 13th, 2008, 23:09

Nice Pics...

It wasn't at an airport, it was at an LCBO in Canada. The LCBO is where you buy liquor in Ontario. Liquor Control Board of Ontario = LCBO.

It's a little different here in America where we have liquor stores, you don't have those up there. They have LCBO stores.

E_Dawg · January 13th, 2008, 23:54

that stuff legal in the states yet?

Snuggle · January 14th, 2008, 00:04

Negative. I always wondered what the big deal is with absinth. As you can see it's expensive stuff so I never tried it. I'm a cheap vodka kinda guy.

What does one drink/mix with absinthe anyway? I read that there is some sort of legal absinthe you can get in the US now, but it's not the real stuff. Absinthe to me is like a Cuban cigar...I only really want one because I can't have one.

That's funny you ask that because that's exactly what I was trying to figure out while standing there looking at the bottle. I have no idea what you mix it with. I'm the same way, I wanted to try it because It's not legal here. Same with the Cubans, they sell those in Canada as well. I'm just too cheap to buy either of em.

Bigey · January 15th, 2008, 03:03

I'm pretty sure Absinthe is illegal because it has woodworm or something along the lines that can make you hallucinate.

To be honest, i tried it in New Zealand, and besides being extraordinarily strong in alcohol (92% by volume) i didnt hallucinate or have any euphoria feeling. Not to mention you wont like it if you dont like black liqourice because that's exactly how it tastes!

Noticed that.....$88/ bottle. OUCH!

Not sure you'd mix it w/ anything....I think it's considered a liqueur....kinda along the lines of Sambuca and Galliano. Noticed it was placed next to the Galliano on the shelf.

So I wonder, can one get it in a bar/restaurant in Canada? That's about the only shot I'll have at getting some...that is if we're lucky enough to have a RON there.
