Ok... I got a phone call an hour ago.
I know this one might come as a shock to everyone but the ones from the southern United States (you can start to imagine...) but Vicky was suspended a week from school (and a few other friends) Its the reason for which it happened.
It all happened in the chemistry lab.
For a good while when they were unatended with the homework of laboratory tests, she did the ultimate little contraption.
Just add sugar, water, yeast, and I think there's another ingredient I cannot remember. Put it all together and leave for a while to ferment. Then heat it to several hundred degrees. As it starts to evaporate, make sure the whole thing comes out a tube. The tube has got to be at a low temperature. In some cases, you might want to cover it in cold water. And what comes below in another empty place, comes out condensed...
Perhaps one of the most exquisite products to the Puerto Rican taste... its worth hundreds a bottle and in special ocassions you will find even U.S. Federal judges drinking it.
Yes, ladies and gents, she was making a small amount of rum... I think the Americans call it a lot "moonshine".
And when she managed to get it finished she said to her friends "Les presento el elixir de la juventud." (I present you the elixir of youth".
Let's just say she got caught, and that she studies in a Catholic school.
As for the reaction of the parents, its divided. The mom is embarrased and hiding her face. The father is laughing so hard he hasn't stopped... We are laughing... my father got suspended from UPR-RÃ:censor Piedras for doing the VERY SAME THING in the campus chemistry lab... and my great grandmother got filthy rich off a massive operation in the mountains during the prohibition... and if any New Yorker has got a story of some crazy Puerto Rican woman who made a Brooklyn apartment blow up because of that back in the 1960s thats my great aunt. And lets just say I have catered judges and mayors with the stuff.
(And in Puerto Rico its not a federal crime... it only violates state law)
Okay...
I know I should not be like this... but... LMAO, LOL, LOL... I cannot help it.
