Making chickens and eggs and the occasional rabbit. The other day I threw out about 5 gallons of spent corn mash and within a day there were my three neighborhood crows on the compost pile eating it. I was thinking about a Richard Brautigan story where his grandmother, who was a moonshiner during prohibition had dumped a wheelbarrow full of corn mash and the geese got into it, got drunk and passed out.

The guy looked just like Ahmadinejad.

I figure he was a devout muslim, and here he is checking out this middle aged white guy with his 40 oz malt liquor and eggs.

So where's Hurricane on that list?

I'd never heard of it until now. I'd go with the Olde English 800 values. OR check out this astonishing sub-culture:
