That’s a sucky side effect!!
I do agree that Core Power is pretty good as protein shakes go. It’s from the Fairlife milk company—they also have some Fairlife brand shakes that I got at Costco once that basically just taste like milk? Those aren’t as easy to find though.
Hot Dr Pepper, especially with lemon and/or orange slices, is actually pretty good.
I can kind of picture that.
Maybe a cup warmer near the couch would be handy to keep things on the right side of room temp, JZ? But hopefully this stage passes quick enough regardless.
“Clearly it’s a two-shout job” made me snort laugh.
I remember when I had pneumonia when I was 8 I couldn’t feel cold drinks and it freaked me out - I could drink a glass of water and it felt like I’d had nothing to drink (so we heated everything up- in the dark ages, before microwaves!). I wonder if the phenomena are related. What pisses off throats and makes them reject cold drinks? Is it that the swallowing muscles aren’t working correctly?
If champagne isn’t explicitly contra-indicated maybe you should keep some around to celebrate with each time the knives go away.
I have no idea what was in it, but there was definitely a drink called a Flaming Dr Pepper when I was in college...
I remember Flaming Dr Peppers. I don't think they contain any Dr Pepper, though.
The Core Power shout pleases me, more so knowing it is effective! (if requiring two applications)
Timelies all!
Tired and stressed, as usual.

No, I bet they didn't, but maybe they are warm!
lacked necessary hand strength to open bottle
Those rubber bracelets that were everywhere for a while ("Live Strong" and such) are excellent for an assist on opening any kind of bottle or jar.

I believe those were called Dr. Peppers from Hell in my region. A shot glass of half amaretto and half Bacardi 151, set on fire and dunked into a 3/4 full pint glass of beer.
When I was in college, people would brew some Constant Comment tea and lace it with Southern Comfort ... producing a Constant Comfort.
