i probably have had it before but lately sometimes a two liter bottle comes along free with the frozen pizzas I buy for football season. I like it quite a bit.
next time im in dollar general tailor i'll ask when they suspect the cranberry ginger ale will come in.
im a fan of enya's music so im already predisposed in that direction---I hadn't heard Eiffel 65's song before, kinda interesting but enya it is.
into the quarter final round:
coca cola vs anything orange.
seems like a no-brainer given what you've written before but the formalities must be observed.
-
Enya :)
coca cola
Brit rock: Beatles or Led Zeppelin ?
-
I was just a kid when the beatles broke up and was mostly oblivious to the significance of that, or their music, but me and my peers caught on and caught up very quickly when the "red" and "blue" albums came out. beatles for sure. how about you?
sprite vs ginger ale.
-
I lean towards LZ with Page's virtuoso guitar. I was a minor fan of the Beatles and remember their rise to power which thankfully served as a buffer against the Beach Boys (not a fan beyond "Good Vibrations").
sprite vs ginger ale? - Tough one... I'd choose ginger ale by a nose.
Genres: Comedy or Horror ?
-
maybe we'll do a large 64 entry tournament for bands somewhere down the road...
that's surprisingly a toughie. there is so much variety in horrror that some is enjoyable, some is nooooo way! some comedy is fantastic, some is meh. I think the safer bet is comedy. the higher peeks belong to comedy too---hard to top animal house, caddy shack and others like that.
cream soda vs mountain dew
-
cream soda
onion rings or fries ?
-
I love onion rings but its hard to beat French fries with ketchup and sometimes mustard and sometimes Heinz 57.
dr pepper (I just had some) vs root beer.
-
root beer
Planetarium or museum ?
-
leftover from last week:

oh no, you might have asked that one before and now I have to be internally consistent!
I like them both, and depending on the kind of museum, I might pick that one, but otherwise the planetarium is the safer bet.
on to the first semi final: coke vs cream soda
-
Lol !
oops! Thought the thought was familiar but ran with it anyway... sorry :(
Under ideal circumstances: circa 1971... coca cola
Not being a warm day: Chocolate candy bar or coca cola ?
-
that's a fun one and pretty independent of weather. though im a big fan of the carbonation, my choices would go like this:
small can/bottle of coke > a small candy bar
extra large candy bar > a small can/bottle of coke
two liter bottle > extra large candy bar
contest a little tighter if the candy bar in question is a peanut butter cup.
in the second semi final:
root beer vs ginger ale
-
Lol... got it.
root beer... same reason as before
Writers: Charles Dickens or Victor Hugo ?
-
I was thinking of you yesterday tailor when I went shopping. I bought some drink mix and they had cranberry ginger ale. I was tempted, but since it wouldn't have the bubbles, it was easy enough to wait another couple of months.
ive only read hunchback from hugo but bunches of stuff from dickens, plus an actual biography about him---so dickens it is.
and in the consolation match: cream soda vs ginger ale
-
Almost too close to call...
...
...
... cream soda
Writers: J. R. R. Tolkien or J. K. Rowling ?
-
that's a fun one. subjectively I guess it comes down to which I liked better, lord of the rings or harry potter and then there is sorta the movie follow-ups to both and who did I have a bigger crush on, hermione, Arwen, or eowyn…
ack!
slight edge to Tolkien.
sometimes one likes to root (no pun intended) for the underdogs:
cold root beer on a hot summer day after some hard work outdoors vs warm semi-flat coke in the winter after eating too much at Christmas dinner.
laughs...
or just plain root beer vs coke
