Carlsberg
Today, instead of going to a sports day as we always do on Thursday mornings, we went to see the Carlsberg Factory in Ashkelon.
I must say, it made me realise two things:
- Not watching TV gives me the bliss of not watching commercials that show a sexual relationship happening just because of the exchange of glass bottles containing piss.
- If I was a factory claiming to be very sterile and clean, I would check to see there are no turned-over, dirty containers lying around when a big group of visitors comes along.
Also, a friendly sign in the factory said "Please, for your friends sake, speak Hebrew!". Now that was great. I should put one in my office.

That's funny. I remember vaguely being drunk at some party in London, and while holding some fine Carlsberg bottle, a woman I tried to converse in an intellectual manner pushed me aside screaming "I will not have sex with you, you freak!". It was, as I recall now, while my favorite song, "S Club", being played in the background.
Odd coincidence...
Isn't Piss[tm] the official London Olympics 2012 beverage?
Anyway, I've been to the tour (they threaten me I should have to go again! nooooo...) and you left out the part where they tell you that beer is made with bacteria. Well, I knew that, but the way the lady explaining to us said it made it sound so dirty. I almost didn't drink those two pints of Guinness at the end of the tour... :)
We didn't miss that part at all.
Also, there was a movie there showing how historical beer was, and they showed pre-historical Egyptians drinking beer in Israel and listening to Arabic music.
If that's not anachronism, I don't know what is.
You don't even want to know how Israeli beer tastes like.
If you ever try putting some rocks inside a glass, pour some sewage water in, add some lemon juice and salt and shake really well, you might have a totally different, yet better, drink.
Disgusting!!
hey hey! don't trash Israeli beer! It's not bad at all...
Erg... Even Czech beer is better.
Oh, about Russian beer - The Carlsberg factory said they also import some Russian beer, I think it was Baltika? Anyway, they said the alcohol volume in every beer type, and you know, it was like 4.2% this, 4.6% that.. Baltika - Between 3 and 6 percent.
What is it, dependant on the mood of the brewer? If he got drunk beforehand or not?
Oooh baby!
I'm not messing with Those Two Jews...!
