is the type of guy who would lie about anything.
He'd tell you he went to the movies when he had gone to the mall instead, so when he tells you something (specifically about his job) you just have to nod and act like you're an idiot.
Anyway, he called the other day and asked if I could make him a wine to give to his coworkers for Christmas. The company is based in Holland and a bunch of the guys he works with are from overseas, so he wanted a cool wine/mead that was sweet and fairly high in alcohol content to give out.
Anyway, I'm talking him through our options and I mention that I'd probably need to buy another fermenter because the mead we decided on would take up that space for most of a year.
He was going to pay me for it, and even said that his company would probably write off the cost of the ingredients, supplies, and any hardware that I might have to buy to get the project done but I obviously had to decline because that's illegal.
Long story short, I'm going to build one of those conical fermenters from this thread:

WITH MY OWN MONEY THAT I EARNED AND IN NO WAY RECEIVED FROM ANYONE ELSE
So I'm excited that I'm going to get a badass conical, and will be able to do ten gallon batches from now on. Placing the order tonight.
