Calorie free alcohol
For those who want alcohol but worry about the calories, here's a way to
have your alcohol without the calories. It is not uncommon for an American working adult to indulge in an alcoholic beverage after a long day on the job. What is uncommon, however, is for that individual to snort the intoxicating liquid into his or her nose. Though it may sound strange, painful and downright crazy, it is quickly becoming the latest faze in obtaining a euphoric state of mind. Citizens in Europe have begun consuming drinks such as vodka and absinthe with the aid of a new device known as an Alcohol Without Liquid (AWOL) vaporizer. The alcohol vapor is created by pouring a spirit into a diffuser capsule connected to an oxygen pipe. The oxygen bubbles are then passed through the capsule, absorbing the alcohol, before being inhaled through a tube. The inventor of the AWOL vaporizer, Dominic Simler, claims this method of consuming alcohol reduces the effects of a hangover and is calorie-free. In addition, the effects of the alcohol can be felt much quicker as it is directly absorbed through blood vessels in the nose or lungs, bypassing the stomach and liver. However, though it may sound like a healthier alternative to the normal way of ingesting alcohol, medical experts are concerned with potential danger that could cause brain damage. The direct exposure of alcohol to the brain could cause irreversible damage to nerves, lead to swelling and possibly lead to dementia. Despite medical concerns, AWOL vaporizers are becoming a hit among European citizens. Do you think it's only a matter of time before Americans begin 'snorting' their martinis? |

when I was a student back in 1985 we studied about using nebulized vodka to
treat pulmonary edema. I think you are trying to describe "nebulizing" the alcohol but wouldn't absinthe be too thick to nebulize well? I've never seen absinthe so I am just assuming that it is thick. hmmmm I do have that nebulizer and pari neb cup in the closet, bummer, no etoh but Tequila. -- Lori 220/150/140 LC since 1/17/03 Devoted wife of Curtis, Stage 4 Prostate cancer at age 40 http://community.webshots.com/user/lorismiller-date "Mahibab Habisinski" wrote in message ...

I shan't take your advice again, I can assure you. |

This is probably the thing that Dubya started using in the National Guard and that got him in so much trouble. |

This post reminds me of a story about a drunk driver, obviously intoxicated,
but there was absolutely no odor of alcohol on his breath. He had used a Bacardi 151 enema. MJ. "Mahibab Habisinski" wrote in message ... For those who want alcohol but worry about the calories, here's a way to have your alcohol without the calories. |

That beer shampoo they used to sell would always get me stoned out of my mind.
