Well, yeah, obviously it's MJ, but I also see some of E.T. in there.
Coincidence? I don't know.

I've drunk a lot of absinthe (mostly with a lower tujon content, though), and have to say the Czech one is the one I've tried that packs the biggest punch.

I also made my own absinthe once, and I have to say it was just as good as any of the store-bought stuff.

I think this is all South Park's fault.
They make relentless fun of canadians, and I think they've used the 'aboot' a number of times.
That said, I laughed til I cried when reading this strip.
