So Coke wants to get in my face, huh? Fine. They just lost a life long Coke only drinker. Adios amigos! Anything made by Coca-Cola is no longer welcome in my house.

I’m the opposite. I’ve always thought Pepsi tasted like just sugar water. At least Coke has some flavor. But think I’ll boycott Coke for awhile at least. Dr Pepper and Mountain Dew taste pretty good to me.

I'll bet Coca-Cola is more concerned with their world wide sales than the US segment. Remember the “I'd like to teach the world commercials”?

You don’t? It’s loaded with caffeine. This is what happens when you drink enough of it:

I have two of Mohammed Ali’s autographed list of Bible contradictions, he check marked out of 35 of those the first on both autographed sheets;
1. Exodus 33:20 vs, Genesis 32:30.

Ali was at the MGM Grand in Vegas waiting (maybe in 1997-difficult to read his writing on the sheet) for his limo and had several sheets in his hand. His daughter was trying to get him into the car ASAP!

He didn’t look very good to me for he appeared to be in a catatonic like state. But he still looked very fit and muscular.

I suppose when he meets his maker the autographed sheets may be somewhat valuable?

No pictures. You need Grandpa’s leg a-hopping to get the full experience.

Did you know Grandpa was his neighbor and was the first to discover him and his wife dead?

Grandpa’s dance was really good but the original is the best sounding.

Well, here’s a second chance at the $64,000 question. What was the Skippers character name on Gilligan’s Island? Not the actor’s name.

Either we are a western, English-speaking society, or we are a Third World cesspool. Please take your pick.

The direction we are headed morally, we be lucky to end up as a third rate power. Morality is the foundation of any Nation. As the morality goes, so does the rest of the Nation. The Western Nations seemed to be hell bent on committing suicide with such things as “homosexual marriage”, “transgender rights” bestiality, and other degenerate acts.

I appreciate your post and agree with much of it.

My heartburn with the Coke commercial is/was that they were taking something profoundly American and purposefully using versions sung in other languages. To rub our faces in the naked political power grab that those who Celebrate Diversity (tm) are doing.

If you want someone like me to accept the video, they could have put b-roll of people taking the Oath of Allegiance to the US as part of the commercial.

Did they do that? No. So, I’m not willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.
