    As much as I enjoy a Coke every once in a blue moon, the stuff is creepy.

    I use and old wife's tail, grandma's bisquick remedy that really works.

    When you have a clogged drain, pour a can of Coke down it and it clears it right up and better than liquid plummer.

    Now, imagine what that does to your insides?!?!?!?!?

    Seriously, if you do dig drinkin' soda, check out health food stores cos they have natural stuff that curbs the sweet tooth when needed and w/o all of the friggin' chemicals. There are several brands out there nowadays.

      Actually, stomach acid is pretty strong. I'm not sure Coke has much effect.

        Well, I’ve given up the “leaded” soft drinks for diet but they’re not any better. But It does help keep the weight off.
        Getting off topic again but I watched my buddies kid play basketball this weekend. I’ve not seen so many out-of-shape, mental cased, unatheletic kids in my life. They were totally uncoordinated and spastic. They try to imitate and mimic what they watch on TV and it’s really embarrassing.
        The difference is we used to get home and go outside to shoot b-ball until dark. Eat dinner and help with a few chores and work on homework WITH our folks. TV came last or not at all. The radio was a lot cooler than Laverne and Shirley and Happy Days and Kotter. I really felt bad for these kids. They couldn’t dribble and they couldn’t shoot. One kid fell down twice and had to be helped off the floor. One kid was so spastic he was crying at the end of the game while his mother helped him get his sweats on. ??????
        We used to mow the lawn and yard work on Sat. Without fail. Winter meant getting limbs and out of the yard and the gutters clean, storm windows installed and cleaned. Of the walks and driveways had to be cleared of snow. Sometimes Dad got us up early to help him get the car out for him to go to work.
        Through the week we took out the trash, dishes nightly, washed clothes and rugs, swept and dusted. The Saturday afternoon was pretty much free to get a football game in with the guys or H-O-R-S-E.

        Ford makes a really relevant and salient point about replacing sugar. I don’t get that either because you have to break down the natural sugar in fruits, so simple sugar should be easy to break down. What exactly is potassium citrate? I’ve heard it helps against kidney stones. But isn’t it a replacement for citric acid found naturally in fruits?

        Hardrock, isn’t there trace levels of benzene in all drinking water?

                    This is what I always drink. Don't know how Unhealthy it is. Probably will kill me someday, somehow. Probably made by the BCE too.

                        Goddamnit! I knew there was a reason why I liked it so much. They must put some form of Nicotine in it or something. Urgh!

                              Eddie Murphy: Richard said, "The next time the motherfucker call, tell him I said, "Suck *my* dick." I don't give a fuck. Whatever the fuck make the people laugh, say that shit. Do the people laugh when you say what you say?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Do you get paid?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Well, tell Bill I said have a Coke and a smile and shut the fuck up. Jello pudding-eating motherfucker."

                              Classic, I loved Eddie Murphy's stuff from back in the 80's. Now he's all family friendly.

                                I used to work for American Bottling Company, which is owned by Cadbury Schweppes.

                                I guess in your conservatively-challenged mind, that means I was a BCE employee.
