Current Music: More Beer Polka - Trad.
This is an obscure item from the bowels of today's newspaper. It wouldn't be at all noteworthy if it were written into a sitcom or a movie, but the fact that it happened in real life gives me a laugh. I quote from the Associated Press:
OSLO, Norway (AP) – It seemed like a miracle to Haldis Gundersen when she turned on her kitchen faucet this weekend and found the water had turned into beer.
Two flights down, customers at the Big Tower Bar were horrified when water poured out of the beer taps.
Someone at the bar in Kristiandsund, Norway, had accidentally hooked the beer hoses to the water pipes for Gundersen's apartment.
"We had settled down for a cozy Saturday evening, had a nice dinner, and I was just going to clean up a little," Gundersen, 50, said. "I turned on the kitchen faucet and beer came out."
