Default How to remove glued laminate countertops?

Hi all,
I am prepping my kitchen for the install of granite countertops. I am
removing the laminate countertops myself and for the most part I am
not really too concerned, except for one part. Most of my countertops
appear to just be screwed down. I have an "upper" area of countertop
that is at bar height. This part of the countertop is 18" deep and
sits on a 2x6 framed half wall. I pulled the trim off and it looks
like this countertop is attached with some sort of construction
adhesive (brown and looks like liquid nails). Can anyone give me some
pointers on how I can go about removing this countertop? This stuff
is
really strong I can hang on the ledge and it doesn't even budge.

Thanks,
Dino
