Amazingly, I found a really good black cherry soda in an unlikely place - Walgreens.

They have their own line of premium soda made with sugar, not HFCS. Look for the Orchard Black Cherry in the glass bottle.
I resorted to DIY sodas by going to the co-op (or local flake shop health foods) or, if you have one, a shop that carries baltic/slavic/eastern Euro foods, and buying black cherry concentrate or elderberry or pomegranate concentrate or whatever flavor and adding my own fizzy water.

oooh. Black Cherry Wishniak memories.

I wonder if it tastes that kind of right. I'll have to check them out, there's a Wallgreen's up the street. And down the street, as it happens.

Just add your own fizz.

One of my friends just got one of these. It is beyond awesome.

I've got one. I usually drink it plain, but I've also enjoyed their grapefruit and Dr Pepper knockoff flavors. I'm a fan.

I have a cabonator/ soda machine too... we love it. I love making "mike's hard lemonade" with it. Basically fizzy lemonade and vodka in the store they cost $11-12 for 4, at home they cost $3 for 5-6ish

I can wholeheartedly endorse:

Mondazzi Books
570 Hayden Station Road
Windsor, CT
06095(860) 285 0538

I buy through them on Amazon UK under newbookscheap4u2.
They seem to take an age to arrive, but they are far cheaper than any UK seller once I add cost + P&P.

THINK about it - I can buy a book from America, and my full cost is still cheaper than buying a book from someone based in England.

And they have all arrived within the estimated delivery time, even if I think it's an age.

Finally, they were very decent and polite when I queried why things were taking so long, pointing out gently that this was international delivery and the approx date was stated on the confirmation. Yup. Correct. I bet they get it all the time, too.

I wholeheartedly endorse: Axe Dark Temptation Revitalizing Shower Gel. I can use a stripe 3 inches long, the width of a pencil, and get lost in the suds. This bottle is a month old, still over half full, and will last the rest of the year, at least.

Bonus: It looks like maple syrup.

Also, I smell so good, I'm almost gay for myself.

I see your HUGE spongy upholstered hand in the background.
That is a tiny bottle.

It doubles as a walkie-talkie, too. See the antenna?

Let me axe you this: do you get a good reception?

If they're not too pretty, I'm generally well-received.
