The two biggest problems drinking when you're underage is getting somebody to buy booze for you and having money enough to buy it. Well one day we figured out a way to solve both problems - homemade blueberry wine. All we needed to do was mix some berries, water, sugar, yeast and a few more ingredients in a jug, wait a few weeks and we'd have a few cheap drunks - and we could get all the stuff we needed ourselves. So we went out and got everything we needed and mixed it up in 5 or 6 big jugs that Tony had around his house, plugged them up and hid them away in his closet under some clothes. In a few short weeks we'd be tasting wine better than Dom Perignon. But one of the things we didn't know about making wine is all the pressure that builds up when wine is fermenting. About a week after we started the wine Tony called me one morning with the bad news - 2 of the jugs blew up overnight and EVERY bit of clothes in his closet was covered with blueberries and blueberry wine. All the walls and the ceiling were covered and the whole house smelt like homemade wine. Of course his folks completely freaked out and tossed out the other jugs of wine. That ended our experiment with home brewing and it also began our introduction to painting and wall papering.
