Disfunctional Alcholoics
A sad story from Indonesia:
Fourteen young Indonesian men died after drinking a cheap, home-brewed alcoholic cocktail, police said Monday. The men, in their 20s and 30s, died after consuming a mix of 90 percent alcohol, vanilla, ginseng and honey, said police chief Benone Jesada in East Semarang, Central Java province. “They started drinking last Friday and started dying Saturday,” he said, adding that another man was in critical condition at a local hospital. The seller has been detained for questioning by police who were trying to determine the precise cause of death. Sales of commercial alcohol are heavily taxed in Indonesia, the world’s most-populous Muslim nation, making it too expensive for most people. The restrictions have resulted in a huge black market for wine and spirits.
Be careful what you brew.
GorT is an eight-foot-tall robot from the 51ˢᵗ Century who routinely time-travels to steal expensive technology from the future and return it to the past for retroinvention. The profits from this pay all the Gormogons’ bills, including subsidizing this website. Some of the products he has introduced from the future include oven mitts, the Guinness widget, Oxy-Clean, and Dr. Pepper. Due to his immense cybernetic brain, GorT is able to produce a post in 0.023 seconds and research it in even less time. Only ’Puter spends less time on research. GorT speaks entirely in zeros and ones, but occasionally throws in a ڭ to annoy the Volgi. He is a massive proponent of science, technology, and energy development, and enjoys nothing more than taking the Czar’s more interesting scientific theories, going into the past, publishing them as his own, and then returning to take credit for them. He is the only Gormogon who is capable of doing math. Possessed of incredible strength, he understands the awesome responsibility that follows and only uses it to hurt people.
