How To Make Your Own Prison Hooch
The other day I decided to try making prison hooch. Prison hooch is simply booze that prisoners make from whatever ingredients and tools they can get. It is usually quite strong in alcohol and just plain gross. But is supposed to get you real drunk, real fast! Alcohol is made when yeast turns sugar into alcohol. Simple enough. So, inmates put old bread, for it's yeast, into old socks and into a garbage bag with water, potatoes or fruit that has lots of sugar. The entire mixture is left somewhere warm to do it's thing for about a week. Then they drink it or sell it- $2/cup or $10/cup for the stronger stuff. Since I'm a free human being and have access to less ghetto tools I made my hooch with a slight bit more sanitation. I dissolved 1 cup of brown sugar in a small sauce pan of tap water. Then let it cool slightly before pouring in 1 packet of regular bread yeast. Next, I cut-up an apple and stuffed the pieces into an old sanitized wine bottle. Next, I poured in my sugar/yeast water into the bottle using a funnel. Filled it with some more tap water to about 2 inches from the top. Shake it and you're done. Now it's very important to let the gas out of the bottle, which is created by the yeast, so your bottle doesn't explode! And also very important to not let any oxygen in- it'll spoil everything and taste worse than it is already going to taste. I used the balloon, which you can see in the picture is standing straight up full of gas, pulled over the top and duck taped. I used a needle to prick 5 holes to let the gas escape and prevent oxygen from coming in. I also tried some hooch using a pear. In 7 days the gas should have stopped and I'll update then.

Word of the day
I haven't written on my blog for days now. Besides the holidays I just didn't feel inspired to write. But now I want to.
I have an interesting word I like. It is Superficial. In terms of emotion, superficial is used in a number of ways to refer principally to a display of emotion which is not necessarily genuine. For example, to display 'superficial charm' refers to someone who externally appears genuine and charming yet is intentionally appearing so, perhaps for personal gain.
I personally despise acting superficial, whether it is me acting it or someone acting this way to me. I find it fake. Not being real. And that just won't do in my gansta world.
Aw, snap! That's what this blog is all about. Just tryin' to keep it real!
