So you want to get drunk fast try the WA|HH

Nothing is faster than this little baby


Have you ever been somewhere and needed to take the edge off for a couple of seconds!? Well Here is your answer it’s called the WA|HH Quantum Sensations and it will get you drunk for a few seconds and then leave you clear headed.

Read all about this novel little head spinner below
Two American scientists have designed a small spray that gives you that instant drunk sensation from less than a drop of alcohol.
The makers of Wahh Quantum Sensations claim, however, that the "harm" is limited, because you sober up equally rapidly.
The alcohol is delivered via an aerosol spray, so people feel briefly drunk, then sober up.
But however quickly people might recover, drunkenness can lead to accidents - and it’s also unclear how the device could be misused by alcoholics.
The feeling lasts just seconds - but when it fades, you are sober and able to carry on with your day.
The ‘Wahh Quantum Sensations’ delivers just a miniscule dose of alcohol - 0.075ml - directly in to your mouth, but thanks to the aerosol effect, the effect is instantaneous.
With a typical drink containing 40 to 60ml of alcohol, the scientists say it would take a thousand sprays to get the equivalent amount of alcohol into your system.
French designer Philippe Starck and Franco-American scientist David Edwards say the advantage is to enjoy the drunk sensation with none of the harmful effects of alcohol on the body.
The spray was unveiled in Paris on Wednesday.
"The question is how to do good without doing harm. Wahh is an alternative that offers the idea of intoxication without its adverse effects," the Daily Mail quoted Starck as saying.
The product is about to go on sale in Europe for 20 Euros, with each capsule offering 21 "shots". UK distribution plans have not been unveiled yet.

Roly-Polly pudding yummy


Roly-Poly Pudding

Ingredients: 

cups flour (500 ml)

  • teaspoons baking powder (15 ml)
  • teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter (1 stick or 125 g or 4 oz)
  • eggs, beaten
  • milk, a few tablespoons, see instructions
  • teaspoon vanilla
  • apricot jam

Sauce

Directions:

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350 deg F/180 deg Celsius.
  2. 2
    Grease a suitable oven dish, like a rectangular Pyrex dish.
  3. 3
    Mix the flour, baking powder and salt, and rub in the butter. (Can be done in a processor, also the next step).
  4. 4
    Add the beaten eggs, and then just enough milk, tablespoon by tablespoon, to make a fairly firm dough.
  5. 5
    It's easy to watch in the processor: as soon as a firm ball forms which is not sticky, but soft, the dough is ready.
  6. 6
    Roll the dough out quite thinly -- on a surface sprinkled with flour -- and form a rectangle, by cutting off bits and adding it on again -- you know how.
  7. 7
    Spread the dough with apricot jam.
  8. 8
    From one of the LONG sides, roll it up like a swiss roll.
  9. 9
    Cut this roll into 1 inch slices, using a serrated knife such as a bread knife. The jam WILL ooze out.
  10. 10
    Pack the slices, cut sides up, closely together, in the greased dish. Scoop the jam which oozed out on the surface you used, and just plonk back on to these rolls.
  11. 11
    In a pot, mix the boiling water (from your kettle), sugar, butter and vanilla and stir until sugar dissolves.
  12. 12
    With a tablespoon, ladle evenly over the slices of pudding, but beware: you will have more sauce than the baking dish can take. Usually you'll be left with about 3/4 cup. KEEP IT.
  13. 13
    Bake for about 40 - 45 minutes.
  14. 14
    When the sizzling pudding comes out of the oven, carefully pour the extra sauce over the centre slices: I find that, when baking, the sauce tends to pool on the sides.
  15. 15
    Now the hot pudding will absorb much of the leftover sauce in seconds. Use as much or as little as you like.
  16. 16
    Serve hot, with custard, ice cream or sweetened whipped cream.

The old Popes last wish

The old and frail Pope lay dying in the hospital. For years he had faithfully served the people of the world. He motioned for his nurse to come near. “Yes, Father?” said the nurse.
“I would really like to see Robert Mugabe and George Bush before I die,” whispered the Pope.
“I’ll see what I can do, Father,” replied the nurse. The nurse sent the request to them and waited for a response. Soon the word arrived. Robert and George would be delighted to visit the Pope.
As they went to the hospital, George commented to Robert “I don’t know why the old man wants to see us, but it will certainly help our images.” Robert couldn’t help but agree. When they arrived at the Pope’s room, the Pope took Roberts’s hand in his right hand and George Bush’s hand in his left.
There was silence and a look of serenity on the old Pope’s face.
Finally Robert spoke. “Holy Father, of all the people you could have chosen, why did you choose us to be with you as you near the end?”
The old Pope slowly replied “I have always tried to pattern my life after our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.” The old Pope continued…..”He died between two lying thieves. I would like to do the same.”
