Another Spocktail from the beverage researchers at SMRL: Home of The Deathwave Bar & Grill!
Anyone who's been on a serious drinking binge with friends will realize that there are just some things that should never ever be mixed together. And yet, if you add in just one more ingredient to the concoction, it's perfectly acceptable. This is one of those times. We discovered this drink (originally called "memory loss") while on an underground pubcrawl in Berkeley, California. It's sole reason for existence is to cause you to pass out, black out, or drive the porcelain bus for a few hours. How wasteful! We decided to do something about it. It now has a new name, and a better function.
It should also be noted that you might want to do this at home, as that it has a tendency to make want to take your clothes off. This is not a good thing in public when you are busy talking with trees... which will in all likelihood happen. We also don't advise drinking more than one!
Ingredients
Prepare mushrooms by boiling 2- 2/12 grams per person, boil for 8 minutes, in as much water as it takes to fill a coffee mug. Let cool to room temperature. Pour the result through a wire strainer and press on the mushrooms with the bottom of a spoon to get all of the moisture out (if you are hungry, you can eat the mushrooms). Pour into a tall glass. Add in Bourbon, Rum, and Tequila. Drink quickly. Lock your doors, strap yourself in and enjoy the ride which will hit you in five minutes or less.
(Thanks to enigma for the shroom tea recipe.)

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
