Naah -- I want one with P&l'É, not some kind of Filterated Czeckerland Xit (no "e").

Just think of the sugar cube you could put on THAT!

. . . with all them holes, it'd burn real purty, too

Not absinthe-related but perhaps one of our Left Coast crew...

You're on the same junk e-mail circuit that I am.

Actually, that xit was pretty funny.....

Propose to him, Abby!

Um, no thanks.
Not that he doesn't look lovely in that dress.

He's already gotten 5 proposals, and all he was trying to do was sell his ex-wife's dress. Guy may be on to something....

Wow.
You think he could have gotten more if he tried to sell his ex-wife.

Uh, no.

Another Putz trying to sell information you can find for free.

Would you use a whole sugar tablet with this glass and spoon?.......

I fell over laughing when I saw that one.
I wonder who will bid on it....

But aren't the rest of the info-seller's auctions illegal?

Tell eBay, they will pull the auctions.

I see Van Helsing is getting some play.

Genuine plastic, pastis era crap.

Topettes don't fetch much, I've noticed. Were they the styrofoam cups of their day? Or have repros hit the market?

Depends on the condition, and if the Bouchon is still there. (A lot of toppettes are calcium stained)
They were not just for Absinthe either.

That's very useful information; all of it news to me. Thanks.

I take it the bouchon is the stopper.

If a "dose" of absinthe is an ounce, I'm assuming each tier on a topette represents an ounce. What other drinks were dispensed by the ounce?

Of course, my frame of reference is the twentieth-century cocktail, measured in one-and-a-half-ounce jiggers.

Looks like it got jammed in a 19th century garbage disposal.

. . . or caught between yer teeth, Croz!

Ow.

YUM

>Worlwide shipping.

by dirvishes, no doubt...

Or those little flying monkeys.

Sounds like a ripoff. Why would I buy an absinthe claiming only 35mg / Ltr of t*jone when I could buy vile muck from other vendors with higher t-jone claims? Heck, even Butty claims 70mg. These guys aren't even competitive.

Some fucks just don't care about the
consumer.

I guess they mean the beginning of this century.

The whole Paypal / Ebay / Absinthe thing sucks... it's really turned me off from looking because of that.

Maybe we should send Ashcroft a bottle of Absinthe?

Well, Filterated Czeckerland Xit, anyway.

I think I judged that last one a bit too quickly.

Standard reaction around here, eh?

Nothing like wormwood, hops, vitamins, and alcohol to create an energy drink.

Absinthe Glass... from the isle of Target

I like the fucked up French "Le ciel est devant vous, soit libre".

A Classic. That fine touch that lends him an aura of authority .

I wonder when he'll discover that dictionaries don't help out with grammar...

That's some of the funniest bullshit I've seen in a long time.

Has the Princess of Paranoia moved?

Not in ages, I fear.

Perhaps some extra strength Metamucil would help.

I just sold my antique Pontarlier glass so I can eat. Life sucks sometimes.

I hope you got all it was worth. Otherwise I'm gonna smack you for not offering it here!

You know I wanted one dammit

I've been there, on more occasions than I care to remember, Rimmy.

Being an antiques dealer ain't like having a real job.

Hopefully, you'll land one soon, and find an even better Pontarlier glass, to replace the old one.




!!!

I got a good price for it, although a little bit less than I paid. I didn't think it would be right to come on here and try to sell xit. I was never really that fond of the glass anyhow. I was underwhelmed when I first opened the package and found that it was smaller and lighter than I pictured a Pontarlier would be, and I felt like I wasted my money. It's kinda dinky (no offense), as glasses go. Besides, I have other antique glasses (East glass, Choppes Yvonne, etc.) that I find more satisfying to drink from, being nice & heavy an' xit. Anyway, I think I'll just pick up a 6 pack of the Pontarlier repros from LdF after I get some $$$ flowin' in...

Thanks, mang.

let me know if you want to sell that sweet, sweet ass of yours.

I ain't that desperate for money.

Yet.

i've got a fiver that says you are.

Fiver?!?!

Yup, the from the Land of Bogs do have tiny members, though 5" is on the large side.
