'Why We Fight'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Barq's is the best big-selling root beer, but there are some really excellent varieties put out by smaller producers.
I discovered it as a small local New Orleans brand in the early '80s. Slogans of the era -- "Of course it's great. But is it root beer?" and "Drink Barq's. It's good!"
It's just fucking foul, Allyson.
Screw the university. I want him kicked out of the human race.
Man, I don't have the words to articulate my fury.
In less rage-ful news, the root bear site allowed me to track down the name of the root beer I loved to pieces when it was still around: Mystic Seaport.
On the plus side, there are guys like this out there.
Root beer is the crap that tastes like mouthwash, right?
I do love cream soda though. And cream soda floats. For when your cream soda just isn't creamy enough. Mmm.
Yeah, I've been basking in this fury for 2 weeks now. The sad thing is, it gets old.
amych, I know of a student who is planning a response to the "Petting Zoo" column; she's asked people to email things they love about Durham. So if you want her email, ping me. (Calli too for that matter.)

A (male) friend once asked me if I felt like a second class citizen. I said I do. I absolutely do.
He was amazed. This is reason #589742 why. It makes it very hard to think that good men, who don't view women as a collection of holes to fuck or flesh to punch, aren't a minority. I hate feeling that way about half the human race. But then, there's gangrapes and stonings and abortions outlawed in the US! And a debate that still goes about whether it is women who should stay home with the baby and somehow fathers never figure into it.
This morning I read that child sex tours are becoming popular in Georgia, and detailed a 16 year old girl who is sold to up to 17 men a night.
And everyday, I hate a little more.

No, no, no! It's goood, with a sweet but root-y taste that is smoother than smooth. You've just never been exposed to the good stuff. Interesting thing I learned over at the TWOP Doctor Who forum is that the Brits apparently don't have real lemonade readily available over there. Again, they don't know what they're missing!
Sad thing is, Ransone could legitimately face assault charges of his own. A co-kravver was charged with assault by his attacker a couple weeks ago. Shit ain't right.
I have to admit--I don't feel like a second class citizen of the world (not being a citizen of the US, and everything). I can't articulate why. But I do wonder what the species' "right" to continue is. Faced with a tribunal, what evidence could we give?
Root beer is only good in floats. Sans ice cream, it's nast. (Granted, I've never really liked any sodas, so I'm not really the target market here.)
