p. Fruit bowls are strange things. I'm quite a keen fruit consumer, but however much I eat, there always seem to be one or two pieces of fruit which decompose quietly at the bottom of the bowl. Today I discovered an ominous looking kiwi fruit lurking at the bottom, and gingerly picked it up. It squished in a worrying way, and then actually fizzed. It sounded like an alka-seltzer dropped in water--that's a serious level of fermentation. For a mercifully brief moment, I toyed with the idea of drinking the juice to see if it had produced a decent kiwi hooch. A particularly painful memory of some banana wine I once tasted surfaced just in time, and I threw the fruit in the bin. A luck escape, I think.

I'm not sure thats the kind of alcohol that you would want to drink.

Not so bad hooch. My grandfather was one of the first to bring Kiwi fruit to the states as a grower. He made the only known batch of Kiwi fruit wine. I tried it once at my uncles wedding (the only bottle I can remember being opened since the orginal batch) Wasn’t so bad. But wouldn’t go drinking the stuff out of bad fruit, needless to say, you could get real sick.

aw-sum. next time drink it! and then try and write some new vi tips. =) btw, have you checked out the oreilly unix bookshelf cd thing? i recently purchased a copy and i immediately thought "unix power tools 3rd edition, learning the vi editor AND mac os x for unix geeks? bsag would love this."----- I hadn't seen that CD bookshelf package, but it looked so tempting that I had a look on Amazon.co.uk to see how much it was going for. The answer was too much, but I found someone selling a used copy on Amazon for 10 pounds including delivery, so I've ordered myself an early Christmas present - excellent!
