    Maybe Pepsi is better than Coke?

    Nope, You don't order a Jack and Pepsi for a reason. And that's all I have to say.

    since they pay britney spears a LOT of cash, apparently. how about a "drink pepsi, get laid (by teen sensation)" promotion.

    only THEN, will pepsi be better than coke. and only until you see the "morning after" spears.

    Bart ended up getting the elephant but decided to give it up in the end, returning the family to the status quo for next week.

    I'm just waiting for some obese computer geek (nobody here, right?) who buys soda by the case win this thing, be unable to pass the physical requirements for the rigors of space travel, and then turn around and sue Pepsi for the $20 mil that they didn't have to pay Russia.

    It could be kind of humorous, actually, the kind of people who will think they're cut out for space flight just because they drink soda.
