42. Portuguese transsexual wins Britain's 'Big Brother' TV show Really
Now I need a Drink


LONDON (AFP) - A Portuguese transsexual bank clerk was the talk of all Britain after she won the fifth series of the "Big Brother" TV programme and claimed 63,500 pounds (95,000 euros, 117,000 dollars) in prize money.

With her squawking voice and grating laugh, Nadia Almada, 27, initially seemed unlikely to endear herself to the British public -- only to emerge at the end with 74 percent of viewers' votes.

69. This one comes with a song...


Red, red wine
Go to my head
Make me forget that i
Still need her so

Red, red wine
It`s up to you
All I can do, i`ve done
But mem`ries won`t go
No, mem`ries won`t go

I`d have thought
That with time
Thoughts of her
Would leave my head
I was wrong
And I find
Just one thing makes me forget

Red, red wine
Stay close to me
Don`t let me be alone
It`s tearin` apart
My blue, blue heart

---red red wine rap section---

Red red wine you make me feel so fine
You keep me rocking all of the time

Red red wine you make me feel so grand
I feel a million dollars when your just in my hand

Red red wine you make me feel so sad
Any time I see you go it makes me feel bad

Red red wine you make me feel so fine
Monkey pack him rizla pon the sweet dep line

Red red wine you give me whole heap of zing
Whole heap of zing mek me do me own thing

Redred wine you really know how fi love
Your kind of loving like a blessing from above

Red red wine I love you right from the start
Right from the start with all of my heart

Red red wine in a 80`s style
Red red wine in a modern beat style, yeah

(chorus)

Give me little time, help me clear up me mind
Give me little time, help me clear up me mind

Give me red wine because it make me feel fine
Mek me feel fine all of the time

Red red wine you make me feel so fine
Monkey pack him rizla on the sweet dep line

The line broke, the monkey get choke
Burn bad rizla pon him little rowing boat


Red red wine i`m gonna hold to you
Hold on to you cause I know you love true

Red red wine i`m gonna love you till I die
Love you till I die and that`s no lie

Red red wine can`t get you out my mind
Where ever you maybe i`ll surely find
I`ll surely find make no fuss jus` stick with us.

(chorus)

Red red wine you really know how fi love
Your kind of loving like a blessing from above

Red red wine I love you right from the start
Right from the start with all of my heart

Red red wine you really know how fi love
Your kind of loving like a blessing from above

Red red wine you give me whole heap of zing
Whole heap of zing mek me do me own thing

Red red wine in a 80`s style

Red red wine in a modern beat style, yeah.

90. It is a brewing style
Edited on Sat Aug-07-04 02:08 PM by Kellanved
It is a yeast-on-top style (like an ale) most frequently used in Bavaria based on wheat (= Weizen). The beer is less bitter ("herb") than Pils and has a fruity flavor.

There are three major types (and many smaller):
Hefe (= "yeast"; unfiltered)
Kristall (filtered)
Dunkel (dark)


A distant cousin is the Berliner Weisse: a thin sour wheat beer, drunk with Woodruff as a refreshment - the best summer beer, bar none.
