In another thread, I made reference to my Diet cola addiction.
I soon found out that many other flashaholics are similarly cross-addicted ... to both flashlights and cola (which I call pop!).
As you know, cross addictions are often harder to cure than single addictions (ask any Betty Ford graduate).
In the other thread, some nay-sayers started down the "aspartame (Nutrasweet) is going to kill you" route. Others countered "only if you drink 12 cans a day."
Well, guys, I'm here to tell you that on a good day, 12 cans is a mere drop in my consumption bucket ... and speaking of buckets ... would I have to count the countless times I stop at gas stations to refill my 44 ounces refill cup each day?
I love diet pop! And I don't plan on giving it up until they pry my dead cold fingers off that ice-cold can!
Oh sure, some of you sissy pop-drinkers might want to form a Diet_cola Anonymous Meeting Network (DAMN).
But, I don't plan on attending a DAMN meeting, ok?
That's just the way it is.
I drink two cans of pop before I even get out of bed in the morning! My lovely and loving wife brings them to me when she gets up to let the dog out.
I've been addicted to pop since the earliest days of computer programming, when connected via primative modems, I stayed up for days on end with other DOS programming junkies trying to perfect each snippet of code.
Now, I know, Windows programmers now prefer double Latte's and other women's drinks.
But, give me a frosty, foaming diet cola. I savor pop like fine wine, swirling a sip over my tongue, feeling the bubbles.
If you are of a like mind, please respond with details of how you enjoy your cross addiction to flashlights and diet pop.
If you are going to try to rain on my diet pop parade, please don't post.
