I guess the only thing missing was the Karaoke and sing-along to the Red Hot Chilly Peppers ? BTW another Vat of wine, please waiter and a LARGE STRAW, thanks ! I hope you have recovered and shed all that extra water/wine now...if not try this little gem, BBBB-BEROCCA, chock full of yummie Vitamin Bee or wait 24 hours...~No More Cheers~ :o)

Oh I'm sorry what was happening! ;-) I have made the same experience! It's terrible! Basically you should eat some bread instead of drinking water! Let's hope that your throat feels well again! What tricky girl Kyla was! Jealousy LOL!!!

I guess you never want to eat my salsa then. For one medium sized bowl I use 6 roasted habenero's. Rather spicey if I say so myself. Sorry to hear about your incident though. Next time rather than guzzle water, might I suggest eating some bread. It really does help.

Oh, my - oh, my!! Digital's a drunkard and a would-be murderer?!?!? wwaaaahhhh You've destroyed a myth, you printpaper monsters!!! You're simply envious and horrible!! What comes next? You'll tell me that Santa does not exist or something, uh? (while everyone knows that he's actually just gone in vacation on a remote tropical island after having a discussion about a deliver of a packet of weird white dust inside a fake snowman... what was the name... :? ... oh, yes! Alcatraz!) - i don't believe a word of this!!! Your stopries are always cracking cool sweetie!! ;)

Love the story!i can just see it all now..I have seen a woman do almost what you said at our local THai restaurant..It was scarey!!we thought she was having a heart attach!

Great Story & just the stuff a Tabloid would use to create headlines... As For Kyla, Shame. Shame.... But I can Imagine tha you just don't get even... You'll get a head some how...

Is this a true story?

LOL! Aren't you sure those glasses of water weren't tornadoes? 8-) Looks like you have to get rid of that friend of yours, Kyla... Introduce her to me and after I talk to her, she won't bother you anymore... She'll be too busy with her psychiatrist! 8-) Meredith Issues DEATH THREAT to FORMER FRIEND!!! I want to read that new piece of gossip... Maybe this will even end with some catfight and clothes will be torn!! Oh boy! oh boy! 8-) The scene with Meredith trying to get that pitcher of 'water' (so to speak) and getting entangled with the waiter, deserves to be done in Poser!

Excellent work!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahhh...the playful habañro pepper...a chemical weapon of mass indigestion. Most of the fruit and vegetable grown in our state are sold with a little sticker on them that reads "Grown in Pennsylvania", but these ought to be sold with a sticker bearing the legend "Groan in Pennsylvania (or anywhere else for that matter). Not to be taken internally." My sincerest sympathies to the lady; if she needs a good character witness after the Kyla killing, she will not have far to look. Some things are forgivable, others not.

vis151--I'm with this comment is this all true ya never know on meredith site lol: great all over !

Great and funny story Meredith. I to wish you and yours a very Safe and beautyfull X-mas time and happy new year.We see us in three weeks again. I will miss your storys. And your monday madness. Take care and hugs. :) Ilona

Wonderful story Meredith!!

Thai food can be an experience LOL! Very amusing story!

LOL!!! You went on a binge without me?????? I am going to cry!

They say whipped cream, out of a can, helps a lot. Great story, what happened to the waiter? I bet he was either really mad or really happy, depending where they both landed.

Even though it looks the same, gin is different from vodka among the whites. That is why in Germany they call it Kartoffelspirit. It's made from potatoes and can go either way, methyl or ethyl. There is no need to make methyl purple. It is denatured from the still. Try the squid. It's very chewy.

got to watch out for those peppers. I was at boy scout camp when I first came across hot sauce. I put it on like katchup thinking it was . lol My mouth was on fire and I druck all the other kids drinks lol cool story I been there in real life

First, remind Meredith that those hot spices are oil based. You can't mix oil with water, so no amount of water will help wash it down or dilute it. Next time try peanut butter or any oily substance that won't kill ya. Of course this might create other problems but at least your mouth won't be burning..lol. She might even try licking Rogers Nose if it's oily enough. But then again, I can imagine the headlines from that course of action..lol. Great story Mere.. Had me going for sure. And now I must be going for sure. (on my two week vacation..Yahooo) Hugs, Seasons Greetings and a Bravo from Dave :^)

Meredith, this story made my eyes water just at the thought of hot peppers. Great story, very descriptive! vis151, love the rifleman avatar. :)

Some like em' HOT! ;)

Run Kyla Run! lol. So you drank lots of wine and then tried to weaken it later on after the fact with lots of water? Likely story. :D LOL....good one!

very funny story!! years ago when I was a draftsman I was barely making ends meet and one day the other draftsmen suggested we go to a barbecue. well a poor country boy that I was, had never been to a barbecue restaurant. I ordered the cheapest thing on the menu and it was barbecue bologna. I had no knowledge to tell them make it mild. well it was hotter than a Saturday night special. I was so hungry that I ate it. I was drinking water like crazy the whole afternoon.

I was in China having dinner with several workers and bosses from a major Beijing newspaper. Being the only non Chinese person at the table brought about the usual challenges, "what I was willing to eat, and how much alcohol I could consume". I was asked if I liked "HOT" (Spicy) foods. Of course, I never backed down from a challenge, so I said yes! My throat burned for days... So, I think I know exactly how you felt! LOL I did learn something though. If you inhale through your mouth just before you take a bite of something very spicy, and it makes you sneeze, Beware it will probably burn like hell! LOL But honestly, I just think you had too much wine! LOL

The peppers will do you in. I just about killed myself one night eating a platter of stuffed jalepenos. A fifth of tequila probably did help much either. Never been so sick in my life.

he he ha ha ha ! great story. you are so hilarious. wtg!hug

OMG!! That is too funny! I almost killed myself on those things once, too! I couldn't believe how hot they were. And I like hot foods. Hilarious writing!
