#1 In college in the early 70's I had a 50s Pepsi Machine (one of those with the cursive script). Used it for beer cooler.
It was more efficient than any fridge I currently own. It sipped power. I know because I had a huge fight with the dorm lords over it and they put a power meter on it. It made the little cube fridges look like fat hogs.

#2 You'll only take my beer cooler from my cold, drunken hands...

#3 Denise Young must have been too timid to do a study about Wisconsin beer drinkers.

Nothing neater than an old soda machine kicking out cold ones.

#4 Canadians eat poutine? Who knew?!
I'd bet they do gobble up more tandoori chicken.

Beer... that is also debatable. Molson Pissener is not really a beer.

#5 I like poutine, it's like diet food, really, only, it tastes better, especially if you eat a plateful of it (or three).

#6 This article makes me so proud that I could just. . . . . . have another beer. Today's outside air temperature is -21 C. Who needs a fridge when you can just use nature?

#7 Heck yeah Canuckistan sniper! I call it my 'walk out cooler'. Yours looks to be set a little lower than mine, gotta get at it before you get hopsickles : )

#8 And they haven't even started to address the methane issue.
