Some weird signs from around the world


Wonder what kind of fees these guys charge

Tequila season will be here soon,
here are a few things you need to know.

Tequila is probably the most known and consumed spirit

in North America. It is consumed both neat (with no other ingredients)
as part of mixture of ingredients to produce a multitude of cocktails.
True tequila is made from blue agave…a succulent plant found
in the region surrounding the city of Tequila.
Tequila must be made with a minimum blue agave content
of 51% to be labeled as tequila, otherwise it is called mezcal.
Fine tequilas are made of 100% blue agave.
Tequila is made primarily in the area surrounding the city
of Tequila, where it was first produced in the 16th century.
The volcanic soil in the region surrounding Tequila is particularly
well suited to the growing of the blue agave, and more than
300 million of the plants are harvested there each year.
Tequila is most often made at a 38–40%
alcohol content (76–80 proof),

but can be produced between
35–55% alcohol content (70–110 proof).

Currently there are over 100 distilleries
making over nine hundred brands

of tequila in Mexico and over 2,000 brand
names have been registered.

US based liquor companies and bottlers import
bulk tequilas from the Mexico

manufacturing plants and bottle and various facilities in the US.
Because of this arrangement, the Tequila
Bottlers Registry was created to

identify approved bottlers of tequila and created an
agency to monitor the registry.


Another weird sign



Would you really use this to
dry off your privates??
