Crazy But True
 
I had some creepy sweet pale beer that tasted like shit. I hate that kind of stuff. I wonder why I do that to myself. Maybe it's a self-loathing thing.
-- Mr. Bad

 

Simon Jansen had an idea to keep his Guinness extra cool in his hot New Zealand shed. Since a liquid converting to a gas draws heat away from its surroundings, and since a jet engine converts a lot of liquid fuel to gas before burning it, why not combine a jet engine with a beer cooler? Fantastico!

So that's exactly what he did. He hooked up a jet engine in his garage, attached the fuel source to a beer cooler, and chilled his Guinness "extra cold", just the way the can says to serve it.

This guy knows how to follow instructions!

Over.  End of Story.  Go home now.
