I copy/paste the article ( see below ). Thanks for the welcome back, I have one more cancer reconstruction surgery on December 15th and then this round of fighting cancer should be done.
1. Inhaling your drink - literally
There was a time when "inhaling a drink" simply meant an individual was downing their spirit of choice, perhaps a bit too quickly. Now with Vapshot available to masses, you can instantly convert our favorite alcoholic beverages into a vapor and, well, inhale them.
The company website explains, "When served (the vapshot), the customer twists open the cap whereby it will 'pop' similar to uncorking a bottle of champagne and then a portion of the spirits will instantly vaporize, which can be consumed through a straw."
Normally when you take a drink of alcohol, it has to go through your mouth, down your throat, into your stomach, then intestines, and finally into your bloodstream to your lungs and brain. It stands to reason why this process requires a few minutes to catch a buzz. Inhaling vaporized liquor, on the other hand, helps you wet your whistle much faster.
And while it is hard to fathom the concept of actually "breathing down" a dirty martini, it is impossible no more. Gone are the days of midnight traffic stops being escalated with the simple question, "Have you been drinking tonight?"
Yes, I'm afraid things have just gotten a bit more complicated. Moving forward, maybe the question should be amended to, "Have you been drinking or inhaling alcohol tonight?"
Needless to say, the company gives solid evidence that Vapshot is safe. However, this is one of the inventions you'll have to decide for yourself is a good thing or a bad thing in the long run.
Not everything about technology is good, you know. Here are five things about technology that irritate me, and probably you too.
