A medieval Belgium city is planning to build a beer pipeline under its cobblestone streets so its citizens can enjoy the sudsy stuff without all the traffic.
Agence France-Presse reports that the pipeline is set to connect the historic De Halve Maan brewery to a bottling factory two miles away, eliminating the 500 trucks that drive down the city’s small streets each year. De Halve Maan hosts 100,000 tourists each year and local residents were concerned over the loud trucks driving through the city. […]
The pipeline is designed to carry more than 1,500 gallons of beer each hour and construction will begin next year, according to Belgian publication deredactie.be.
Excelsior!
i’m concerned about all these loud trucks
Those loud trucks are driving all up in the city.
But, listen to these silent beer tubes… you can’t.
I was impressed to read that blended Scotch is sometimes made from single-malts created elsewhere and then piped to the blenders’ facility.
I want a hookup to that line.
I think the real question on everyone’s mind – come Oct 1, will Darleen (again) put up a “fundraiser” post encouraging everyone to support Jeff and His Laborious Blogging Efforts?
Darleen, maybe it’s time you broach the subject with Jeff of him selling the blog to you. I’m sure he’d make you a square deal on an asset of this value.
If you want this place out of Jeff’s hands, then he is obviously over the target.
You big pussy.
Me too, McGehee. I guess I’d have to move to Scotland though.
Well, sacrifices must be made.
I’m a-waitin’ on that bourbon pipeline.
Why must mileycyrussays soil itself so surely?

I’ll continue with “Self Twerkers” for $400, please, Art.
I often find it puzzling that those who see no problem whatsoever in forcing others to pay for things they don’t want have so much trouble understanding people paying voluntarily for things they do want.
But then, I also find it odd that the Nobel Committee hands out “Peace Prizes” to men responsible for the deaths of thousands. True, it’s thousands of brown people. Maybe the Norwegians are just really racist.
Maybe they are just thinking of another language’s term and meaning when they say the English word “Peace.”
I’m pretty sure the real question on everyone’s mind is, is there anything bacon can’t make better?
Bacon Scotch?
And the DJ categories are “Twerkaholics,” “Oh My Aching Mileygraine,” “Tongue Twerkers,” “Walk A Miley In Its Spoos,” and “Twerk Me Daddy, Eight To The Bong.”
Your board, Mr McGehee.
Geez, trollcyrus, do you never take a vacation?
Because you really should. Now. Forever.
I’m sorry, but you must buzz in before questioning.
Not to forget category six, “Achy Breaky Flaky”
The judges have ruled that we can consider that “Geez” a “Bzzz.”
Your board, Ms Click.
Buzz.
I don’t claim to be prescient, but I just knew that stevemileycain’tquitjeff was going to make a snark about Jeff’s absence.
At this point I don’t think he’s a paid troll, he just gets off on his little game.
I’ve never heard of it being called “little game” before, but I think Verne Troyer calls his “Twerk Boy.”
They are in trouble if Warren Buffet owns those trucks.

When Niels Bohr won the Nobel Prize for physics the Danish government gifted him with a house next to the Carlsbad brewery and ran a pipe from there into the house.
Now that’s class.
