I agree with Lin and Victor, I don't think it was just Pepsi that he was drinking to get those effects! A lot of alcohol will damage you big time and this would be the after effects of it! I've never gotten drunk, and don't plan to, so I don't know exactly how that feels, but I've seen it first hand! This is a fantastic write about "Pepsi" with a little extra umph thrown in! What a grandiose piece my friend! Great Work!!

The Pepsi line is really about the commercial the poem was based on and instead of pepsi at the end I used Tipsy lol:-) I seldom drink alcohol these days and have been drunk twice and it is something I never want to experience ever again:-0 hugs jan xx
