Metheglin is actually spiced mead. The invented meanings were excellent today, with the winning entry being supplied by Code Cutie. Congrats, CC.

Metheglin is the drug of choice for members of a small aboriginal community of mystics who live in caves in Glasgow.

Metheglin is a rare but highly sought after herb that is used to cure uncureable diseases it is unknown as to where to find it but if you do watch out it is worth more than gold.

Metheglin - a creature from Tasmania that looked like a buffalo on one side and on the other side a monster. The "meth" part of the name came from the word "myth", because everyone thought that it was a mythical animal. One day, that now infamous man, Sir John Jones, gathered a group of five, now infamous, people: John Jr., Jason Jr., Sillas, Noah and Ron Jr.. So they ventured to Tasmania and camped near where a farmer had just claimed a sighting of a metheglin. That night the farmer heard horrible screaming. In the morning the farmer went to the tents and found nothing but blood and bones. The only thing left was a camera that held the first proof of the existence of the Metheglin.

Well, Code Cutie, I guess that explains why tourism is down in Tasmania!

Metheglin- This is what authorities call a group of several meth labs all localized to one area of a city.

"The police announced today that a metheglin was discovered in the quiet little town of Glendora! The area residents are shocked!"

Supposedly, Methuselah lived to be nearly 1,000 years old (okay, 969 but who's counting). Thus, a Metheglin is any 1,000-year period.

"Are you ready for lunch?"
"Are you kidding!?! I feel like I haven't eaten in a metheglin!"

Metheglin is actually a very small village in Wales. It is well known for its high proportion of street people who sit under those quaint stone bridges, sculling Methylated Spirits from bottles hidden in brown paper bags.

Metheglin is the generic name of the active ingredient commonly used in pain relief ointments. The name is derived from the chemicals used to produce it, Methyl Glycolate, and Triacetaglin.
