The Kind of 'Food' I Have Been Waiting For


"Coca-Cola and Nestle are getting together to introduce a new beverage "proven to burn calories". Enviga will be in the U.S. Northeast in November, nationwide in January 2007. How does it burn calories? With green tea extracts, calcium, and caffeine. No word on how many milligrams caffeine per can. " from Slashdot

Who cares what it tastes like, this stuff will FLY off the shelves. I will try to pre-order a couple cases !

From what I read, you will burn more calories loading your car with the cases of it you will need to lose weight than you will by drinking it. I DO find that a can of sugar free Red Bull helps me walk longer - but it's probably all the placebo effect. However, when I was about 12 years old, I was kicked out of the hypnotizing trick at the fair because I was the only one who could let go of the rope, so maybe I'm not so susceptible to placebos! I swear, my Aunt Nancy was right beside me, and she could not let go. People were clucking like chickens and yelling "Get your hot dogs!" and other strange things, and I was sitting humbly in my seat, wishing I could have experienced the magic!

What is it called ? What's it cost. Where do you go to get it ?

Class distinctions and social networking sites

Interesting read: An excerpt: A month ago, the military banned MySpace but not Facebook. This was a very interesting move because the division in the military reflects the division in high schools. Soldiers are on MySpace; officers are on Facebook. Facebook is extremely popular in the military, but it's not the SNS of choice for 18-year old soldiers, a group that is primarily from poorer, less educated communities. They are using MySpace. The officers, many of whom have already received college training, are using Facebook. The military ban appears to replicate the class divisions that exist throughout the military. I can't help but wonder if the reason for this goes beyond the purported concerns that those in the military are leaking information or spending too much time online or soaking up too much bandwidth with their MySpace usage.

Web Slang

Today I ran across a term that i didnt know (YOU probably DO), "420 friendly" ....but thanks to the remarkable internet, one can do a search and become enlightened immediately. The term "420" and its attendant traditions date back to the 1970s, but at least some evidence exists -- enough to convince any stoner, at least -- that the term has experienced something of a resurgence in our electronic times. On message boards and community sites across the Web, it's possible to find people who are "420 friendly," meaning that they'd love to meet you and smoke your dope.
