    In Russia, a drink with 6.0% alcohol-by-volume is considered a low-alcohol beverage. Also, women drive around with their eyes closed drinking something called "China Town" with dragons on their laps. Silly Russians, the dragon goes outside the car. [Copyranter]

    "I Live. I Ride. I Am. Jeep." Ad Will Not Conquer
