We used to have this back at the old forums and I thought it would be a good idea to have it here as well.

Before posting your picture, please consult this topic regarding image sizes and hosting.

I'll be the first then.

This one is appropriate for my current rank of Scout.

I'm the one in the background, on the right.

Kalah, that is SUCH a scary pic. Don't know why you insist on using it.

Hey! Can I post a Pic of Ethric? Please?

DaemianLucifer · Unread postby **DaemianLucifer** » 10 Jan 2006, 00:31

Sure you can,as long as he doesnt find out

ScarlettP · Unread postby **ScarlettP** » 10 Jan 2006, 00:35

OK! Here's one! *giggle*

You just have to know that Ethric used to go by the nick "Jha'dar" in another forum. I photoshoped this one as a gag when "Return of the King" came out.

edit: there will be a reckoning...

To be far, this was the original photo that he posted on the prior "True Images" thread.

...with much wailing and gnashing of teeth

AND - just to be equally humiliating of myself, this is a pic of me from last New Years Eve.

The caption should be "How drunk AM I?"

You mean to suggest booze is cheap where you live, right?

ScarlettP · Unread postby **ScarlettP** » 10 Jan 2006, 00:57

Yep. You could say that. Especially on New Year's Eve!

Oh lord. One of my buddies makes Moon Shine. He brought some. I had actually never had any before. That stuff will kick your behind up around your ears and make you LIKE it!

Eh, home brew usually tastes like $h!t. I've heard. Ahem. Anyway I know people who bring it to parties and uses it to mix their drinks with... Yachh.. But then booze is vrey expensive here, so I understand why they'd do it.

Over the last few years, one of the biggest news stories in Norway has been the appearance of Methanol on the smuggler-market. Booze smuggled into the country to be sold illegally contained some batches of Methanol. Several people died, and after a long investigation by police (and lots of press), a few of the men behind it all (big smugglers) were tried and convicted for "wrecklessness with death as a result" - receiving long prison terms. Serves 'em right.

Another thign was the case against a manufacturer who volunteered to test the smuggler's booze for them, to see if it contained Methanol. They figured, better that we test it and dump it if it's dangerous, than the smugglers' gambling on selling it. The police thought differently; the booze should have been discarded althogether, they said, and made arrests. Tricky case, that one.

My friend actually makes a very high quality 'Shine'. As is normal for our area, it's made from corn - "Corn Squeez'n's". While he does like to put it in the traditional 'Mason Jars' (Glass jars with two part lids used for home preserving of fruits and veggies) he was very excited when we gave him six clear gallon sized jugs for his product.

Most 'shine' is traditionally made in a big still that uses copper piping, but has been reported to be boiled through old car radiators. Not good. That's where you get problems with the Methanol. Trace elements in bad equipment causes both bad taste and dangerouse chemical compounds.

"Home Brewing" is actually quite a popular hobby in the US. However, you are correct that most of the Homebrews are dreadful. I think that's why everyone at my party was pleasantly surprised that the Shine was high quality. My oldest boy - about your age - got all smart and poured some in a metal measuring cup and set it on fire. It burned mostly clean with a high, blue flame. Only a few golden flair ups when it hit the water. We're not sure if the water was in the shine or the freshly washed container.
