Mickey's Beer Cap Puzzle Answers Website With Photo Gallery and More

Tory, our long-time web researcher/crawler stumbled upon what appeared to be the ultimate collection of 'rebus' beer cap puzzles with answers. He found the official Mickey's Beer webpage - which is very well done - with one exception. Upon clicking on the 'puzzle generator' and 'answer center', he found that there is nothing there to view. The gallery of cap images does not load up, you can generate your own cap puzzle however it does not save it for show on the webpage as stated. Obviously, the entire staff here at the FPT test kitchens was very disapointed. On the webpage is a link to 'talk to us' (Mickey's Beer Co.) - we encourage all who read this to contact them and let them know that we would like to see this website up and fully stocked with cap answers and the other offerings. www.mickeys.com October 2009 Update: Our team has launched a new site with symbol by symbol answers for the Mickey's beer cap puzzle collection. There will be new cap answers posted daily until we get the whole known collection up.

We are looking for photo submissions of caps if anyone can help us with that. If you have a specific cap you are trying to solve, please email us with the link found in the right column of this page. We will solve it and post it ASAP.

Win Food & Beverages Online With McDonald's "Stack My Mac" Game

McDonald's has put a video game online that you can play and try to win Big Mac sandwiches and Dr.Pepper beverages. It plays kind of like a Tetris game - with the player moving icons to create rows of three and trying to keep the Dr.Pepper glass full as well - which if goes dry, your game is over. Rodney in our digital photography lab is the current FPT staff leader. Post your score/prizes below in 'comments' if you think you are the real deal. Stack My Mac Video Game

Thanks again to one of our East Coast reader's for another great submission to the FPT. We did not ask how he came into this recipe - but it apperas to be something quite tasty.

VLASIC dill pickle relish (Heinz dill relish also works) 1 tsp. sugar 1 tsp. dried, minced onion 1 tsp. white vinegar 1 tsp. ketchup 1/8 tsp. salt Mix everything very well in a small container.

Fat Pride: Every Group Has It's Bad Seeds

For this post we are going to take a look at the ugly side of Fat Pride by learning about 2 individuals who truly give our movement a push backwards. Some of the staff here did not want to give these 2 freaks anymore press than they have gotten, but in the end we decided it important these stories be shared. Our first person we will mention is Mayra Lizbeth Rosales, whom has been charged with one count of first-degree murder and on one count of injury to a child in the death of Eliseo Gonzalez Junior. Basically, she smacked her 2 year old nephew twice causing him to die from the blows. Problem now is how do they get her to the courtroom? She weighs 1000 pounds and cannot leave the house as no doorway is wide enough. Her attorney is also arguing that she would die in jail or court due to her condition. We suggest bulldozing the house, putting her on a flatbed truck and hope for the best. Next we have the "Honorable" Judge Elizabeth Halverson from Las Vegas, who has been suspended from the bench since September 2007. While we cannot find numbers on her exact weight, she is real scary big. Her suspension is over her conduct, more specifically, falling asleep on the bench, mishandling cases and mistreating her staff. If the allegations prove true, she will be a black eye on the Fat Pride movement forever. Watch the video below as her bailiff describes her asking for footrubs and spitting sunflower seeds on the floor for him to pick-up.

UNUSUAL FOOD NEWS: Oregon's "Fried Chicken Killer" Trades A Plea Deal For A Fried Chicken Buffet

One of our reader's wrote this up and sent to us today: In Oregon, a unqiue legal agreement has been accomplished between a defendant and his lawyer. The lawyer wanted his client to take a plea deal he felt was in the man's best interest - but the defendant waffled. The lawyer then thought of a plan to offer his client a promise of a KFC and Popeye's Chicken buffet as a show of good faith. The defendant had a change of heart, signed off on the plea deal and that same night enjoyed a table full of chicken and sides.

The Construction Worker Meal Plate

One of our readers who works at the 'apprentice/helper' level in the construction business sent in the following take on eating your meal while on a jobsite: Construction is a real man's job. You can't play any games when you are stepping into the workplace with people from 17 other countries who refuse to wear deodorant because the very idea is not man enough. To compete in such an environment one needs real fuel. Were not talking about the bullshit you get from dunkin donuts. Pictured above is the hearty meal that will leave you whipping your ass in the portable toilet with sand paper. - leftover potatoes with garlic and parsley - scrambled eggs with grated parmesan cheese - slice of turkey hill bacon - toasted everything bagel with tuna, chopped onions, mayo, salt and pepper - a full carton of of orange juice "We don't fuck around"
