An Austrian holiday resort is offering guests the chance to swim in a pool containing 42,000 pints of beer.

The Starkenber Beer Myth resort located in and around the medieval castle of Starkenberger in Austria's Tyrol region has filled seven 13ft long pools with the beer.

The management claims that beer baths heal various skin diseases.

However, some guests are said to have enjoyed drinking their favourite brew while swimming in the pools.

Manager Markus Amann, 23, said: "I would rather swim than swallow, as we serve enough of a cold, fresh tapped beer on the bars next to the pools."

Yes, the alcohol leeching through the skin would be something to lookout for.

Sound like a drunken good time to me. Drink your beer while bathing in a pool of it. But, never drink the pool beer!!!

pissant, a beer thread and no ping to me, you are slipping my friend.

[pissant]

I didn't want to wake you from a well deserved hangover! ;o)

BTW, put your head together with Dasher and come up with a good thread topic!

[Darksheare]

Well, there was the hot tub idea.
Fill it with 151 proof.
But if someone made the mistake of smoking near it, you'd end up with the world's biggest flaming jello shooter.

Now pissant, you know where my mind goes all of the time. The mods would would be asking Jim Rob for a raise if Dasher and I came up with the "Topic of the Day".

I have a hot tub with 56 jets, and I have never filled it with booze. I have sat in it for hours while consuming several alcoholic beverages.

The only problem is that the bathroom is so far from the deck. A lot of running in and out of the house. I have to work on building a bathroom on the deck near the hot tub and pool.

[Darksheare]

Hmm, yes.
That does get annoying at times.
Last hot tub I was in, the bathroom was just around the corner from the door.
Unfortunately, sometimes it was 'group travel' or 'bathroom battler' to get there.

[Dashing Dasher]

Any ideas (that won't get us thrown off the board for good?)?????

I will try to think of some clean thoughts. Let me get into a total nonsexual mood. I have to think of Alan Colmes naked for a minute, that will scare all sexual thoughts from my head and I will get back to you.

[Darksheare]

Hmm..
Topic for the day.. ideas.. hmm..

*bad idea generated and then rejected!*

There's always horrifc shows like Teletubbies and BooBaa to help delete one's mind when trying hard not to think of sensual things.

Topic: LEGO Star Wars? (It's a safe topic. Right?)

[Dashing Dasher]

Geez, Alan Colmes?

I'll never have a sexual thought again....

Wait....Howie Long... I feel better.

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Well, yesterday the 70's thread ended up with over 1500 posts. So we need something BIG!! Uh Oh, Alan Colmes naked, Alan Colmes Naked....

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Now you had to bring up Howie, how am I supposed to get the sex out of my head now?

[mikrofon]

Ich bin ein Bierpinkler

[SweetCaroline]

I have to think of Alan Colmes naked for a minute,....WHAT A REPULSIVE VISION!

[Darksheare]

Hmm..
Arcadia being Duran Duran 'on break?'
80's bands?

[Dashing Dasher]

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

"WHAT A REPULSIVE VISION!"

Yeah, but it serves its purpose. I needed to clear my mind of its usual dirty thoughts and that will do it.

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

80's bands... Some were great, and then you have that BONO fool I hate.

I still want to slap those gig stupid glasses off his big stupid head.

pissant, where's that bail money!??!
