ok, now my gears are turning and i kinda wanna do one too, but different...
my plan, im going to get a clear hose about 1'' diameter, and a big *** bucket. take the hose and make a windy curvey shape with it and put it in the bucket (or build a rectangle and put the hose in there, almost like a mold) then fill the thing with water and throw it outside, its cold enough to freeze. then once the water has frozen around the hose, take it out of the "mold" or whatever i wanna call it haha. once out, cut the hose to the right length. at the end of the hose put a open/close valve.
thinking continued...
in the mold, ill put a funnel or something of such shape in there too, which will be at the top. this way i can fill a good amount of beer or whatever into the ice block. see what i mean?

I have little watch battery powered LEDs from my sisters wedding. They hold up even in water, and they light for hours and hours. Assuming you could find them, they'd look pretty cool suspended in ice.

well yeah the party isn't for a few weeks still. In the mean time we have an Around the World Party and the White Trash Trailer bash to have fun at. I just like to be prepared and I was really bored after class today so started to think about how I'm going to make this luge.
