I'd like to stand (or type) before you today and echo what Liz said about the carbonated beverage realm and it's positive effects on human existance and how I know that all this came to be true. Carbonated beverages have saved me many many times, mostly the caffinated gender, during long car rides, long nights of studying, and generally having good days. Aside from the fact that it helps during the creation of human life, it also comes in many great tasting flavors. Some come in a Code Red flavor, some in a vanilla flavor, and some in a cherry flavor. I know some of you have your favorites, regardless of how frequently you partake of this modern ambrosia.
I was given my first can of soda when I was a wee little tike and I've been enjoying it ever since. There was a time when I was soda-free. This was for very good reason: Soccer. Then I was on a Lemonade kick, but off season, you could see me with can in hand, enjoying life, just like in the commercials. Seriously, everytime I drank a can of soda, then beautiful people would come out of the woodwork and start dancing, and music would come out of nowhere and life was a party until I finished the can. Then they went away. It was very weird.
Anyhow, even though I don't drink for, shall we say, 'medical' reasons, I still enjoy the occasional can of Coke, especially of the cherry variety. It adds a certain refreshing splash to an otherwise bland day. So go, enjoy a glass of your favorite beverage, kick back, and enjoy the random people that jump out of nowhere and dance to your delight.
