    What i wouldn't give to have been there...

    I want video of this:
    JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - Hundreds of looters battled police all weekend at the site of a beer train wreck....

    The train carrying 180,000 crates of beer from South African Breweries derailed on Friday night near Waterval Boven, 124 miles east of Johannesburg, Superintendent Izak van Zyl said.

    Last year the vending machine in the lobby in our dorms got knocked over by some drunk. So when the vending guys came they just opened it up and let us all have it who was in the halls when they came...so the machine wouldn't be broken into to get the stuff...

    Why not do that with the train

    Not that I drink or anything

    But there is so many drinks out there. You could have a different one everynight and still never run outta ideas.

    true... but not having a fully stocked bar sorta stops that from happening.

    but I actually miss beer though, dammit.

    Anything that taste CLOSE to black licorish is gross...but i hear that is smooth

    Yeah having a unstocked bar will stop some people. But just think if you buy bottles as you make weird unknown drinks you will slowly make a minibar

    No. More like it will make me slowly into an alcoholic.

    I'd rather be a drunk, dammit. Don't have to go to those damn meetings.

    OK, that sounds good then. Keep it up and keep me posted on project B.E.E.R.

    Don't worry, I'll keep it on the down low.
