Mixing the fiction in with the limes.
The Great Mid-Western Gin Mill Particular was begun as a private news source for bootleggers during Prohibition. Tattered copies of the unseemly periodical were often found on the bodies of murdered mobsters. After an evening of drinking large quantities of certainly poisonous bathtub gin, the chief-editor of the mostly immoral publication decided he would publish short stories. The staff soon gave into popular demand and the gin soaked rag shifted its focus from news to fiction.
