You will be happy to learn that your addiction helps feed the mouths of my beloved best friend and his wonderful family of 4! He is a manager for Pepsi in N.C. and is a VERY uniquely loving man with a beautiful wife and two small children! Thank you, now drink up! This guy has helped me through so much! Your poem ROCKS! I will send it to him with your permission. He is not on the Soup BUT I assure you, this poem will be safe, and much appreciated in his hands!

haha, You are of the Pepsi clan, and I? I am of the Mountain Dew clan. Perhaps we should unite. I think that mixture is called a "suicide" haha. You made me laugh with this poem. very good.
