The only time I have drunk absinthe, it's more than 20 years ago, we were 3 
persons, and drunk a one liter bottle. We felt very funny, laughed like mad 
and believed not to be sooo drunk - until we tried to stand up from the 
table. We couldn't walk anymore. Had knees like gum and creeped in our beds. 
The next day and the headache were the hell. The overnext day was like next 
day after a normal drinking bout. Never again!

BTW absinthe was forbidden since 100 years in our country, because of it's 
aborting effect on pregnant women. But the guy who brought the bottle had 
pinched it in the wine cellar of his father, a then well known federal 
prosecutor...
