"i grew up in erie county,n.y and it was called pop.
after my first tour in the marines coming back from camp pendleton i asked my mom to get me some soda.
she returned with plain soda water."
TOO FUNNY!
I left that serpents den of the unholy alliance between the unions,church and the demecratic party in 1974 and have not been back.
my mom still loves me though.
merry christmas!
GODBLESS YOU AND YOURS!
