Hi Frank!
It was cool to run into you in Second Life the other night (as Nika Dreamscape). I’m going to start catching up on these shows again. I wanted to comment on this last episode where you were talking about the guy who collects and sells discontinued soda. I wonder if some of the names on his list are actually discontinued, or just hard to find. Last time I checked, you could still buy Mr. Pibb in some areas of the midwest like Kansas and Oklahoma.. and I know you could get Mellow Yellow out there a few years ago. Another one I used to like that I could only find out in Kansas was Ni-hi Peach.

I’d love to leave an audio comment, but apparently I need to wait for Podglo to send me an invite code???
Anyway, great episode, as always, but there’s another song with 7-11 reference you could have mentioned – “My Head’s In Mississippi” by ZZ Top: http://www.seeklyrics.com/lyrics/Zz-Top/My-Head-s-In-Mississippi.html
Cheers,
