I've got my eye on you

If the views of concerned parents and scandalized moral arbiters have any reality, singer and entrepreneur Marilyn Manson is something of a bad habit rabbit. As if running around romantically entangled with a teenage movie star young enough to be his child bride were not travesty enough, the tentacles of Manson have now reached out to the Swiss village of Kallnach. Manson has gone European in his quest to produce and market absinthe. Absinthe is a highly potent liquor made from wormwood that is illegal in the United States, and is credited with rotting the minds of artistic Frenchmen in the 1800s. Marilyn claims to have developed a taste for the thick and noxious fluid while at a New Year party with Johnny Depp. Now, thousands of bottles of Marilyn's brew, called Mansinthe, are available on the international market, with a label designed by the goth-tinged star. Church-folk nationwide are wondering what kind of sinfulness will Marilyn try to sell our youth next?
