1. It's my favorite Diet Coke. Better than regular, better than Splenda.
:9 I want one now.

9. How did you like the Season Finale?
Edited on Tue Dec-06-05 01:03 PM by Bullwinkle925
I was rolling on the floor - but I had another idea that would have been perhaps funnier.

on edit: at least AS funny, IMHO.

14. Well, I thought it was hilarious, however
I felt a little--not let down exactly, but I felt like the ending was a bit flat except now I can't remember why I thought that.

I thought the scene where he thinks he's a gentile was great especially when the next scene is him in that TGIF shirt. And fighting with his spirit guides was great too.

I liked it, but my favorite finale is still the restaurant one.

What was your idea? (And what was the real ending--I'm still blanking out.)

16. Fill me in on the restaurant one - I can't seem to remember that.
I hate this memory thing now!!

When they were attending church, I thought, OMG - he's going to walk down the aisle to be saved and get baptized. That would have been hilarious to see him wrestle with that afterwards.

I also liked the 'guardian angel' scenes - I recognized Hoffman immediately but couldn't place the other one.

I have a 'sense' as to how it ended - with him coming back to his body - but now I can't really remember the ACTUAL last couple of minutes.

19. Oh! The other guardian guy was Sacha Baron Cohen of Borat fame.
Ha! That would have been a funny twist. A saved Larry David--yikes!

We'll have to catch the rerun of this last one to find out what happened.

The Restaurant one is where the cook is a "survivor" who swears like crazy. On the night their restaurant opens he swears and the whole place goes silent in shock, so Larry starts swearing back and eventually everyone in the place is yelling obscenities.

And - doh, who is Borat?

21. Nah, I had to look it up. Your memory is fine. It was season 3 and
this is Borat:




(Also known as Ali G, and Bruno depending on what's going on in his show.)

5. Yes, - I had one of those. They are remarkably like
the classic beverage and with very little at all in the way of after taste. The Sprite Zero is excellent as well.

11. lol
True... I just need to find out what it's sweetened with, really.

The thing that happened with that olestra stuff has me not really eager to try any new chemical additives.

12. aspartame and acesulfame potassium
are the sweeteners.

Aspartame is better known by the brand name NutraSweet, and acesulfame potassium is more commonly used with sucralose (Splenda) as a sweetener.

13. Thanks!
I haven't heard of any issues with Splenda, and I'm familiar with aspartame... so... maybe I'll give this a try. :)
