Bored out of my skull I started browsing around wikipedia...
  • An alcoholic beverage is a drink containing ethanol.
  • Ethanol is a drug, and depressant.
  • Alcoholic beverages are clasified as: Fermented beverages and Distilled beverages.
  • Whisky is a distilled beverage.
  • The irish spell whisky as whiskey, no one knows why, they just do.
  • Baileys is an Irish -whiskey and cream- based liqueur
  • Some people drink theyre coffee with Baileys.
  • The word coffee comes from the name of the city of Cofa in Ethiopia.
  • A counter clerk in a coffeehouse has come to be known in English as a barista, from the Italian word for bartender.
  • Many coffee houses in the Muslim world, offer shisha, powdered tobacco smoked through a hookah.
  • The Caterpillar in Alice in Wonderland used a hookah.
  • Lewis Carroll was the author of Alice in Wonderland and he was a mathematician.

from alcohol to math... from a to b... wikipedia is an option when you are completely bored and want to learn something new ;)

¡Cuántas cosas no habré aprendido en wikipedia!

Me recordaste a ese programa del Discovery Channel, Conexiones. Interesantísimo, por cierto.

Si está aburrida y no sabe a quién recurrir, mándeme a chat señorita ;) ¡Saludines!
