I was joking, at 184 Proof, there's not much room for anything else!
Everclear was a popular party additive at parties in NoCal in the 70's, We'd have it picked up in Nevada (couldn't buy it in CA) and liven up the party!

Man that brings back what few memories are left of a shot contest my senior year in college when I prevailed against other men far larger than I by going through 12 shots of 151 proof rum at about 1 in the morning after having been drinking other shots and beer continuously since 6 pm the previous afternoon.
I really don't have much of a memory of the night except for one large football player picking me up off the ground and telling me that I was more of a man then most of his team.

It's still a popular party additive!

Hey Graham,
Surely you've tried Bundaberg rum. Great stuff, but I don't think you can get it here in the US. A friend of mine from Sidney brings a bottle or 2 over every year.

Just in case any of the youngsters on the board are confused, proof is twice the alcohol content.
Memories of buying legal corn whisky - Georgia Moon, comes in a mason jar for authenticity.
Over a year after I sobered up I found a jar of this great hooch hidden behind some books on a book shelf. Don't recall hiding it there. Must have wanted to save it. Used to bring it out for an annual "hobo" party.
