Took Charlie down to Wendy's for lunch, behind us were some folks with about 3 generations sitting around talking about some event they all went to, sounded like maybe a rodeo last summer? Some carnival atmosphere anyway and the girl, maybe 12 or 14 was showing off something or other she'd bought last summer. Grandma asked where she got the money and mom piped up "she won $75 in the karaoke!" Apparently this karaoke contest was going on near where the family was having corndogs or something and the Emcee said "anybody else? you, miss, know any songs?" or something so she got up and belted one out and according to mom, the whole place was just raving about her performance etc. etc. so she won the contest hands down. Grandma asked what the song was and mom said "something poppy, not country. I think it was Cyndi Lauper, Bop? We Bop? Something Bop."

Well in many of the places I've been in Mexico, that's not the worst to be found in your drink. Also any scorpion dead is preferred to any scorpion live - in the bottle is just slightly behind smashed under the bottle in priority.

Initial sharp mouthfeel fades into a long numbing finish starting with the tongue and spreading to the whole body.  Best enjoyed with good friends and an defibrillator.

Well not by itself, but you can use a CO2 cartridge in a cream whipper to carbonate berries or or berries+booze for cocktails.

I've got absolutely no idea how much carbonation it would pick up from the dry ice sublimating all I know is I sure don't want to find out.  I'm in no real hurry to try the pickled arachnids either.
