Sigh...I'm going off Coke

Yeah, you read that right. I'm quitting Coke (the drink not the drug ;).

I won't say that I'll never have any again. I can't think of any way to more surely sabotage my efforts than that. Just that Coke's stock might plummet a little over the intervening days and weeks.

My health has been a little weird lately and I had one of those middle of the night revelations as to the culprit. Coke is, after all, a poison. I gave it a pass since it was my only vice (don't smoke, don't do drugs and drink alcohol so rarely I'm probably safe in saying I don't drink). I don't even drink any other sodas and I don't see the point in exchanging one poison for another. I guess my body has processed as much poison it cares to and it needs better if it's going to function better.

So I sit here, drinking water, and offering a symbolic toast goodbye to my demon-disguised-friend.

Sigh...

And Diet Coke is even worse, thanks to aspartame. When I moved into the house I'm in now in August of 2006, I left piles of Nutrasweet for the ants because aspartame is ant poison. That took care of our ant problem until just a few days ago.

Damn! I knew aspartame was the worst - a poison as true as cyanide but legal (because Cheney owns it) but I didn't realize it was so effective an ant poison. I had an ant problem a few years back, I'll remember that for next time.


Aspartame is why I never did diet drinks, the are so much less healthy that regular drinks. And btw one of the side effects of apartame is weight gain. It's not even a helpful "diet" food. But no diet foods have ever helped anyone lose weight. They all increase your appetite or slow your metabolism. Diet industry needs fat people.

I wonder how much aspartame Cheney consumes?
