Actually I have heard of other thing that are far worse like the 3 billion in research to discover that fast food isn't healthy but yeah I doubt this was really done only Bush would waste money on something so dumb.
Beer lovers from around the world have been making pilgrimages to the Krautlager River since its discovery earlier this year. Many of these beer pilgrims have bathed in the beer believing it has magical powers that can increase their consumption and tolerance levels.
Others just want to drink from the river rather than pay to drink in a traditional German beer garden. The existence of such a river has long been a legend in parts of Bavaria. Traditional German folklore is filled with beer river references, and German schoolchildren are taught about beer rivers from an early age.
"This is the discovery of the century," explains renowned German historian and alcoholic Gunther Kaisersteiner.
Actually, that's true. There are companies that will take parts of dead bodies, or the ashes of a dead person and use a machine to turn it into a dimond or a gem stone.
