There will be a AGWA tasting THIS COMING SUNDAY at the L&L at 7pm

The last one I went to they served the drink free the entire time. At $8 a shot I think I did around 10 drinks! Free!

AGWA is made from coca leaves from Brazil and is created in Amsterdam. There are no other bars serving it here in Chicago.

There is only one bar in the entire midwest selling AGWA, a coca leaf liquor. The coca leaves are from Bolivia, and the liquor is made in Amsterdam. On Sunday On August 19 at the L&L Bar at Belmont and Clark the Agwa Girls are flying in from the west coast and you'll be able to buy shots before church groups and politicians go beserk. The event is from 6 to 9 and this liquor shot has pretty much ended all other liquor shots- from Jaeger to those shots with dumb sex names- they all seem tame now. Distilled and produced in Holland, AGWA de Bolivia is an Alco-Jolt made from the Bolivian coca leaf and contains Guarana and ginseng.

Available in standard dosage of 32 grams of coca leaf flavour per litre, or the more potent 40 grams of coca leaf flavour. Now you get your shot of booze, and a vial of lime powder which helps release the flavor - here are different ways to drink it: (this website has various men and women drinkers in stages of undress from Europe to the west coast so it is not ok for work) http://agwabuzz.com/us/drink.php Here is the website: http://agwabuzz.com/ The L&L is at 3207 N Clark. They were the bar that got people drinking PBR again. http://www.yelp.com/biz/aioVFML-exUzW794nbtrJw

Comedian Jerry Seinfeld has credited his Scientology faith for making him a better comic.The Seinfeld creator and star rarely talks about his connections to the controversial religion, but has opened up in a new magazine article. He told America's Parade that a high school teacher turned him onto Scientology almost 30 years ago.
"It was interesting," he said. "Believe it or not...it's extremely intellectual and clinical in its approach to problem-solving, which really appealed to me."

On Thursday, October 25, The Heartland Institute will celebrate the 23rd anniversary of its founding with a lively and fun reception and dinner with speakers at the Hilton Chicago Hotel. I hope you can join us!

The response to last year’s program, featuring a debate between Prof. Richard Epstein and Rev. Robert Sirico on the foundations of classical liberal ideals, was so positive that we’ve decided to go with the debate format again this year.

This year’s topic is: “Was Abraham Lincoln a friend or foe of American freedom?” Arguing in defense of Lincoln is Joseph A. Morris, president of the Lincoln Legal Foundation. Questioning Lincoln’s legacy is Thomas J. DiLorenzo, author of Lincoln Unmasked and The Real Lincoln. http://www.heartland.org/Benefit2007/welcome.cfm

Sigue Sigue Sputnik were the ultimate soundbite specialists, spewing forth cyberpunk slogans like there was no tomorrow.

But it was tomorrow that SSS had firmly in its sights, and now - poised to return to the scene like aliens revisiting the planet after an initial scouting mission - Tony James and his band of tomorrow people beg to be re-examined, especially in this post-electronica age. http://web.ukonline.co.uk/keith.dumble/hopper/sputnik1.html
