Don’t forget the molasses flood next spring.
“Molasses miasma”, words to look for!

Having sex when the flood occurred, what a way to go!

Thanks, a great read. the link cites Boston’s Great Molasses Flood of 1919 which is stranger still.

The Horse Shoe Brewery on Tottenham Court Road in London boasted a massive 22-foot-tall vat that held some 160,000 gallons of dark porter. On October 17, 1814, one of the metal hoops meant to secure it snapped, and the wooden vat succumbed to the immense pressure of all that fermenting brew. The gushing beer smashed open the brewery's other vats, resulting in a raging sea of beer that burst forth from the building. Doug:"Sad, eh?"
Bob: "Tell me about it."
Doug: "You tearin' up?"
Bob: "Me? No way, ya hoser!" [sniffs]
Doug: "It's all the beer, eh?"

Iv’e never heard of that tragedy. I’m surprised they haven’t written an Ode or a Ballad about it. Gordon Lightfoot sang about a ship sinking during his big years of the 1970s.

“Others who were gathered in a cellar for a wake were caught by surprise by the flood and drowned in beer. “
There’s a joke about the Irish in there somewhere.

I should like a great lake of beer for the King of Kings.
I should like the angels of Heaven to be drinking it through time eternal.
I should like excellent meats of belief and pure piety.
I should like the men of Heaven at my house.
I should like barrels of peace at their disposal.
I should like for them cellars of mercy.
I should like cheerfulness to be their drinking.
I should like Jesus to be there among them.
I should like the three Marys of illustrious renown to be with us.
I should like the people of Heaven, the poor, to be gathered around from all parts.
