  1. I tried to drink Absinthe but its alcohol percentage is so high (70%) to me it is nearly undrinkable...

    1. I've never tried it, Rob. I hear it's powerful stuff, as you indicate. I'll give it a miss.

  2. I saw this one in the Musée d'Orsay last year. Good combo with the "selfie" by Degas.

    1. I like the idea of Degas' selfie, Jonathan and particularly like this painting.
