Iggster, you take it.

That's a generational difference between us, Tom. When I was roughly the age you were when you read that story, Marvel Comics presented the President as a super-villain and head of the Secret Empire.

Sort of like now?

Sort of like now?

Who narrates the alternate future subplot of Rock of Ages?

Greth is only on the site for a month, has less than 20 posts, and is casting aspersions at our president already?????






I approve!

Right, but the sacking of Troy by the greeks after ten years, that was in your youth.

Now, thanks to that old wooden horse, everytime you think wood, you think Trojan.

Dude, you missed your calling!
That is a million dollar idea!
Seriously, you should work on Madison Ave!

"Remember kids, for over 2,000 years, every time you think wood you think Trojan! (available at all drug stores and better gas station men's rooms nationwide!)

I have to agree with Tom, there; that is a really good ad slogan. Too bad you gave it away by posting it on a public message board.

(Unrelated true story: not too long ago a co-worker entered the lunch room while I was enjoying my midday repast and saw the can of soda I was drinking. It was Coke Zero, which is in a black can. He had never seen it before, and said it looked like "death in a can". I said they ought to use that in the advertising. "Coke Zero: It's death in a can!")

Probably more of a niche market than Coke usually wants - goths, vampire wannabes, nihilists - maybe a "No Energy" Drink???

I think the nihilists drink only grape soda. (No, wait, that's the NeHilists.)

I will revisit this quote later.

Orion?

Is that stuff still being made? I thought the producers of that stuff stopped production. I haven't seen the stuff since the early 80's.

Then again, they still make Moxie. Nastiest soda on earth. Favored by a US president once upon a time. I think it was Hoover. Might've been Coolidge. Either way, one of my brother's tried it, dumped it on the lawn. The next day, that patch of grass was dead.
