1. Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip

Alone we travel faster
Together we travel further

Re: American cornie prices
I've got a boat big enough to fit hundreds of cornies on.

I've seen new italian kegs for £90 ish from a uk company. Taking into account their margin, it must be possible to get close to £75 for a large batch.
