Saw this on msnbc.com: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31711373/
www.guinness.com - We’re giving one lucky winner the chance to be among the early non-professional astronauts to venture into space aboard Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic, the world’s first spaceline. You and a friend will undergo intensive astronaut training at Spaceport America, Virgin Galactic’s home and launch site in New Mexico. This will include medical checks, team bonding, and astronaut training that prepares you for the hefty g-forces encountered under rocket propulsion. Then, the countdown begins... The flight itself will be like nothing you’ve ever experienced. You’ll reach speeds of over 2,500 mph. You’ll experience zero gravity, floating weightless around the cabin almost 70 miles above the Earth’s surface. And you’ll witness the view to end all views, stretching thousands of miles in all directions as you look down on our planet or gaze out into the black stuff.

Going into space would be kinda cool, but it aint worth drinking Guinness to do so. Ew.

Guinness is one of the finest beers you can buy...and it's nitroginated :P

It uses NO2 instead of CO2

It may be if all you can buy is PBR and Milwaukee's Best with an alkaseltzer in it. We need to have a beer thread so me and Hisoka can educate people on the difference between piss and beer.

Or at the very least a social group dedicated to beer.

I've started a discussion in my chef's group (http://www.animenation.net/forums/group.php?groupid=36) where beer can be discussed. No one visits, however.

Kool-Aid is gross unless it's in sour blue raspberry slushie form.

I tried beer once, I think that was in 1977. Hated the taste and haven't touched the stuff since. Even if I did like beer, no way would I drink something that looks like burnt motor oil with froth on top. URGH! :x

Convenient in the fact that I arrive back in Ireland today.

I know the actual family that began Guinness. They live in castles and manors.

i had a similar experience, but i am now open minded when i found out someone spiked my cocoa with some digorono(sp?) now when i turn 21, i might just pound a brewski or two.

You're not supposed to like your first Guinness. You have to have at least 3 and you'll begin to like it.

I liked it the first Draft I had, which reminded me of an alcoholic iced black Coffee in a beer glass.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Now I'm taking offense, I've had 250 or more different beers and used to work in a liquor store that sold over 200 different types...I'd bet I know just as much if not more about beer then you do...Guinness is still one of my favorites....you can knock it if you want...but the fact you called in carbonated junk when one of the best things about it is the fact that its a Nitro-brew (Boddingtons is similar that way) leads me to believe you don't know as much as you claim to.
