Translation, please....

I saw these terms in a post by an Australian nurse, and posted a request for definitions, but was never acknowledged.

Can someone please tell me what "SOBFI" and "milo" are?

Apparently "milo" can be had "warm" and "in a cup." (Here, it's grain fed to cattle.)

Thanks.

mickey finn originated in boston, i have heard, where bartenders in blue collar bars use to have trouble with irish immigrants and they would slip them a 'mickey'

same drink was used in san franciso to get a crew on a ship...called 'shanghai'..if you ever wonder how you wound up being a nurse, you might check your drinking habits
