The Bob Marley Shot

Directions:

  • First, fill your shot glass 1/3 with strawberry syrup.
  • Next, carefully add another 1/3 of creme-de-banana.
  • For the top layer, mix some white overproof Jamaican rum with green creme-de-mint and fill the glass the rest of the way.

The secret to the layers is simple: progressively lighter fluids poured slowly will float nicely on top of each other. Mixing the overproof white rum with the creme-de-mint makes the green top layer the lightest and strongest part of the shot.

Enjoy, and keep Jamaica in your prayers.

Rare Alternate Shot of The Beatles’ Abbey Road Cover to Be Auctioned

NME reports today that a rare photograph showing The Beatles walking across Abbey Road in the opposite direction to which they are depicted walking on the cover of the legendary 1969 album of the same name will go on the auction block in the UK later this month.

Taken by late photographer Iain Macmillan, notable differences between the two shots include the fact that Paul McCartney is wearing sandals rather than walking barefoot, and the cigarette he’s shown holding on the album version is missing. The print is among a set of 25 being sold by a private collector. Viewings start this Friday, May 18th, 2012, with bids expected to go as high as £9,000 (Approximately $14,300) at auction.
