Here's an interesting conundrum. I just noticed this evening that when I mix up a Bloody Mary tonight, a work night, I only get 1-1/2 drinks out of a standard 12 oz. can of V-8, and have to supplement the rest of the can to have a second.
When I mixed some over the weekend, I got two full drinks out of that size can.
I wonder why the difference?
Iz out!

Huh. You know, I've seen a similar effect with bourbon. Puzzling.
wv: aphyr. Aphyr the bourbon may not last.
We came damn close to the baby monitor causing an electrical fire in the baby's room tonight. A medicinal shot of bourbon was necessary for me, and, despite having the problem fixed, the baby will be sleeping in our room for both mine and his daddy's peace of mind.
Obviously, it must have something to do with atmospheric pressure.
I'd say that the local gravity fluctuated, Ken, thereby changing the specific gravity of the booze and the mixer. And perhaps the dimensions of the drinking vessel.
But clearly not the chemical compostion, Zeus be praised.
TW: nards. A combination of gnads and gnarly. Cool!
Oh, and the atmospheric pressure would affected as well, as Brian points out.
TW: grater. Yes, I am greater than that. Whatever that is.
