Blenheim Ginger Ale...they have an "extra hot" version that is like drinking hot pepper soda, it has a mean burn to it but if you like that sort of thing...it is good. I bought a coupla bottles once down at the local eclectic coffee house, and the girl behind the counter actually warned me about it. "You know it's, like, really hot, right?"

"Oh yes--that's why I'm buyin' it," I said.

"Okay, just wanted to make sure that you knew..." And she handed me the bottles. She was actually SCARED of these things! Can you believe that.

woohah!

If you're a sissy, you can actually mix Blenheim Ginger Ale with regular ginger ale for a sort of a muted blend...

Mehh, nothin but Jolt in a liter bottle. Back in the day when Jolt first came out, it used to say "Twice the caffiene and all the sugar". :) But word was someone bought a bottle, his kid drank it and was awake for three days straight. :D Soon after, they switched to the lame corn syrup.

Ah, now there's an authentic memory. Here in Los Angeles there was a roller rink (this is in the late 70's) which has been gone for a couple of years now--they turned it into a furniture store recently and I've been wanting to go in to see if I could "feel" the roller rink. But yeah, they did the same thing with the soft drinks, the mixture had the same name, and it was Coke, Pepsi, Sprite, Root Beer, Dr. Pepper and maybe something else, all mixed together in a big cup. I think it only came in the large size because of the kind of drink it was...I remember seeing "Suicide.......$1.00" up on the wall.

I only went there once, on a special trip with my schoolmates, and I couldn't skate worth a bean, kept falling over on my ass. And falls on roller skates are really nasty, because you have no control, your feet rapidly slide out from under you and WHAM, down you go. On the sound system they were playing Kiss' disco album, DYNASTY, and Cheap Trick. Just a little reminiscing.
