Tampons?

I walked into the clinic a few weeks ago, and there was this kid, about 16, lying there with an IV in his arm and a police officer over him. I asked a nurse what was going on. She told me that he got arrested for underage drinking, and he was here because he had alcohol poisioning (he blew a .23). I said that there was no smell of alcohol on him when I was walking by him. She told me about this new thing that teenagers were trying that gets them drunk. She told me that they were soaking tampons in strong liquor (like vodka) and sticking them up their back door. The vodka would soak into their bloodstream through the intestines and anus and get them drunk. It's undectable because it goes through the anus and not the mouth, so there is no smell of alcohol. It's actually clever, but completely dangerous. It is much more possible to get alcohol poisioning that way because before you know that you have "used" too many, you have. It never ceases to amaze me what kids come up with these days!
