Energy Drinks vs. Coffee FIGHT!

Energy Drinks might not be any stronger than Coffee…

Comment: Okay, so what. At least they taste better and actually cost much less than coffee (Starbucks). I generally seem to get a bigger kick from energy drinks than from a cup of Joe.

Besides, when they come out with a Steven Seagal Coffee Drink, I’ll be satisfied. (not)

((Even though 8 ounces is the standard serving size for measuring, most containers have more than that, and most consumers drink more than that.

"You don't have to be alarmed by this, you just have to account for it in your daily caffeine intake," Hirsh said, adding that energy drinks, with their graphic video-game-like logos that appeal to young men, could be "coffee for the new generation."))

Trust me; I am not alarmed by this, Hirsh. But I think you have something here with the videogame energy drink connection…

Halo Energy: Drink it and it will leave you with an incomplete ending.

Super Mario Bros. Super Energy: You’ll be throwing fireballs and smashing things in no time.

Metal Gear Solid: Snake Drinker

Lol, I had the misfortune of drinking two of them in one siting and ended up staying up from Saturday morning to Sunday night, wide-eyed.

I loved the taste too. For the life of me, i cant remember where I bought the bottles from. Could it have been CompUSA?

Thanks for the link, i'll check it out

I definitely get a bigger energy boost from energy drinks than coffee- I've been obsessed with Diet Pepsi Max lately, ever since I saw their new commercials. And their site is hilarious! www.wakeuppeople.com

I'll have to give them a try. I've been hooked on Vault for a bit, but I'm willing to try something new.

Shannon Fill: Where is she now? (Ensign Sito Jaxa)

Shannon Fill:   Where is she now? SF has been reviewing TNG seasons o ver at his blog. And, the episode Lower Decks came up. I recently watched Lower Decks on Net-flicks and found myself amazed with the performance from the young and lovely Shannon Fill , who played the character Ensign Sito Jaxa. Jaxa showed up in two episodes of TNG, actually they were two important episodes.   There was a nice arc to her character too.   Her character was killed off in Lower Decks , but there were plans to bring her back for an episode of DS9. From Memory Alpha , ((One story considered by the writing staff concerned the return of  Sito Jaxa  from  TNG : " Lower Decks ". The pitch had Sito being imprisoned under inhumane conditions and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.  Robert Hewitt Wolfe  developed the story for some time. Feeling that there was insufficient explanation of Sito's condition, he had Sito killing her cellmate, whom she'd become cl...

a U of L cheerleader gets into a little bit of trouble...

Image
The Internet can be a dangerous place, and things that you did with that camera can come back to ruin your life. A very attractive University of Louisville cheerleader by the name of Becca Manns took some pictures of herself naked and also having sex with a dude. Either her memory stick or camera was stolen, and the theft uploaded the graphic photos onto the World Wide Web. That was when the shit hit the fan (Louisville Fan). She ended up having to leave the program and probably school. (I am currently enrolled in UofL as well, but you won't find any photos of me.) I sort of feel sorry for her because she did one crazy thing, and now it has ruined her life. However, I have to say this to her: You were given a chance to do something many people would never get a chance to do, go to an University. You have to learn fairly quickly that every action good or bad has consequences. Exposing yourself probably wasn't good for your career or your life. (James steps off his ...

Bernie Mac RIP

Bernie Mac is Dead A bit of upsetting news... ((CHICAGO (AP) — Bernie Mac, the actor and comedian who teamed up in the casino heist caper "Ocean's Eleven" and gained a prestigious Peabody Award for his sitcom "The Bernie Mac Show," died Saturday at age 50. )) I remember watching him on Def Comedy Jam , where he really broke out. If you get a chance, check out some of his earlier work on that show. I think he was able to really shine in some of the roles he took in his movie career. He seemed to always play the creepy guy that wore bad clothes and talk in strange patterns. Friday : He was great in this limited role. He played Pastor Clever, the horny Pastor. Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood : He played the self-racist cop. What a great moment. Get on the Bus : Another good role, but limited. Ocean's Eleven : He had a few moments to shine in this role, plus third film too. Bad Santa : Very ...
