Buzzed you good, eh...?  I used to like my "Mr. Pibb pop"...  I suspect
I wouldn't care for it so much any more... haven't had it in years and
years... 

 ML> of flipped now, and I anticipate having an energy crash round

Cooking will keep you awake, and then when it comes time to sit down...
hmmm, sounds like time for more caffeine... ;)

 NB>> I wouldn't either... I'll save my splurges for something that lasts

I certainly wouldn't encourage them buying them... might even point out
how excessively overpriced...

 ML> We'll see next season if this midwest drought continues.

True.  I've heard that the current storm systems have dumped quite a lot
of moisture into the midwest, though... maybe things will be looking up.
