Were both drinks, the Smoking Bishop and the Mickey Slim, popular in different countries?
Mickey Slim The Mickey Slim was a drink that had short-lived popularity in the United States in the 1940s and 1950s. According to "The Dedalus Book of Absinthe" by Phil Baker, it was made by combining gin with a pinch of DDT (dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane), an insecticide that would later be banned in most countries; consumers of this concoction claimed that its effects were similar to absinthe.
Tee-name A tee-name is a form of nickname traditionally used in the north-east of Scotland to disambiguate people with the same name or in the same family, in the same way as the agnomen (or in early periods the cognomen) was used in Roman naming conventions. A tee-name can be based on a personal characteristic, a trade, or where the person lived. An example is "Muckle Sanny Fite" for "Alexander White", where "Muckle" means "big" (a tee-name), and "Sanny" (or Sandy, or Elshioner) is a diminutive of "Alexander".
