Just got this email. My response to follow:
Hey Fure-cat,
I just checked out the Coca-Cola website and they have this big promotional gimmick on there stating that drinking soda and coffe rehydrates you just as well as water. Part of the site also kind of hints that soda is good for performance athletes because it helps replace sodium lost through exercise. Like Americans really need any help with their sodium intake! You should check it out, I’m sure it will irritate you as much as it irritated me.
Bob?
M.F.: Bob, or whatever your name is (tis best to sign your email, ya know) – it doesn’t surprise me in the least that Coke would do this. But I’m not going to bother going there to check it myself. Got plenty of other useful things to do. I will say, though, that drinking your own piss may rehydrate you, too – but I’m in no hurry to begin that so-called “health” practice.
At a seminar last year a young lady asked me what I thought about drinking piss. I nearly gagged, then I rolled my eyes up and to the right. I think the others in the room wanted to crap their pants, but they had to be professional, ya know. The sad thing is that the lady was rather attractive. Later in the event she came up to me to ask a few questions. It was hard to have a normal conversation because each time she took a drink from her glass, I was wondering what twas inside it. Don’t drink your own piss. Gandhi may have done so, and I have great respect for him as a person – but if you ever looked at his body – he had good reason to drink most anything. He was damn near wasting away and needed all the fuel he could get. As for you and me, just say no to Coke – and turn the other way when you hear about piss gulping.
Kick Ass – Take Names!
