So we were having a BBQ and I noticed that a small amount of my precious Corona was left in the lid. Then I noticed a fly flying around the table erratically, then I discovered why...

That's funny.

Probably didn't take much to make him crash into everything and fly erratically. Almost feel sorry for the little guy. :)

:D Funny thing is he kept on flying back to the lid to refill every few minutes.
AA for flies? He needs it!

Guess he knew where the good stuff was located. :D

I was just imagining a group of flies sitting around in an AA meeting. Snort.

I knew that flies eat s**t, I didn't know they drank it, too. :D

thats funny.

Coronas are a big summer beer in Australia. icy cold with lemon/lime. they are more of a 'showy' beer. i agree there are much better beers around especially Coopers and James Boags but i dont mind a Corona now and again.

LOL! I was expecting a story about a drunk guy on a trans-Atlantic flight. :D


This was really funny too, especially the comments. :)

I find drunk squirrels (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ikH9ZRcF2Q) to be much more entertaining than drunk flies.

Funny video.

Our dog drank some beer out of a cousin's glass during a picnic. Once he started we figured we'd let him finish it since he seemed to like it so much. Poor guy. The front of his body was okay, a little unsteady but okay. Unfortunately, he had no control over his rear legs so he could not walk. He'd start out and his rear would fall over or stumble. At times he would turn around, and I imagine, wondering what was wrong with his rear end.

Agreed. Corona is basically beer flavored water. Yuck.

:D Hehehe. It's a light beer but it's refreshing in really hot weather.
When it's cold and miserable, I prefer Guinness :cool: It's good for the heart! ;)

I thought this thread would be about drunk pilots. I'm glad I was wrong!

And there's nothing wrong with a Corona on a hot day. Especially with lime. :)

I was cringing about that too especially after last week's episode with the stolen Cessna.

Wait - 8 hours? I thought it was 8 inches from bottle to throttle!

I kid! I kid!

Interestingly, those guys changed the industry. Most places have a 12 hour rule entirely because of them.

Personally, I use that as well and others above the FAAs recommendations.
