O.o You have something against colored sodas or something? I mean, the dyes have little bearing on how bad they are for you. Plus, you're sort of damned if you do and damned if you don't these days.
High Fructose Corn Syrup isn't processed in the body the same way sugar is. The body doesn't recognize it as readily and the pancreas doesn't counter it with insulin effectively. You gain more weight eating things with HFCS than you would if you ate the SAME THING made with real sugar, at the same caloric value.
So, no worries about the dyes in the soda.
However - if you choose to consume DIET soda - research now suggests that we have taste cells in our stomach that are confused by artificial sweeteners - and preemptively cause the pancreas to produce unneeded insulin, which ultimately may lead to diabetes.
Water, my friend. It's awesome. Althoguh, I do enjoy my sundrop every now and again... Mmm... :D13 commentsMarch 31st, 2010

Unless you're a pikey, the bowler's douchey. It's the curse of the bowler. And unless you're wearing a double breasted suit or a bow tie - you can forget a fedora or top hat, too...

@mcafee15 They used to be nasty plastic ones... Bob has his on the wall... he's been for like, seven years in a row!
That's the fun part! Discovering new bands! I discovered so much new music: Neko Case, Julia Nunes, Chair Lift, Grizzly Bear, Bon Iver, Erykah Badu, Toubab Crewe, Cage the Elephant, Phoenix, Kai Theory, DJ Qwickie Mart, Carney ---
I mean, sometimes.. the bands aren't great. But with headliners like Nine Inch Nails, Gov't Mule, Snoop Dog, MGMT, Paul Oakenfold, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Beastie Boys, etc etc... it's worth the ticket price alone :)6 commentsJanuary 21st, 2010

@mcafee15 Bonnaroo's intense, btw. 100 bands in four days? I saw at least 3 songs of 53 bands last year. It's a Mecca for music fans. This will be my third year :D

@mcafee15 Do your clothes smell, even if you've owned them for a year or two? Probably not. And much like clothes, when I shower, or wash my hands, I also wash my 'roo bracelets as they are cloth. Right now, they smell like grapefruit - the liquid handsoap in my friend's kitchen.
