Malfunctioning distillery turns lake into vodka. According to specialist analysis, the Bracholinskie lake in Wielkopolska is filled with alcohol.
The concentration of alcohol in the water amounts to 30% in some places. The phenomenon is a result of a technical problem in the nearby vodka production plant. "Our alcohol measuring equipment is not wrong. It recorded a level of 30%. There is vodka in this lake," stated chemist Robert Wilczynski. The news about the free vodka in the lake spread fast and attracted a number of farmers from nearby villages who arrived at the lake to take as much vodka as they can. Meanwhile local women are in despair and have turned to beg god to help save their husbands from the demon drink. "If God does not help us, everyone in the neighbourhood will be stinky drunkards and only a hole will be left on the site of our lovely lake," laments 76 year old Genowefa Licha. (Fakt, p. 10) E.B.

Fly in a C-130 full of olives and add a teaspoon of vermouth and I'm there.

Is there an orange or cranberry juice facility nearby that also has malfunctioning equipment?

Ok,, this is bad. Spud juice is meant to be consumed with it's purity intact. These townsfolk must be animals!! Unrefined heathens! Alcohol junkies! Anyone that would drink water downed spud juice would probably drink something with a paper umbrella in their glass. Disgusting! Horrible! Insane!
Did it say the whole lake??
So, you got enough frequent flyer miles to go with me? :-)

Please.
One sniff of that place & I'd be on my a$$.

This is a rubbish talked by one of our Polish 'popular' newspapers... Do not take it seriously - too good to be true :)
