My best friend just called me from Dublin

Today she had the pleasure of going on both the Guinness tour and Jamison's tour...and she was given many free samples, and now she's on her way out to the pub

Sometimes life isn't fair!

2. She almost got hit by a car last night

a night out at the pub + driving on the opposite side of the road = DANGER WILL ROBINSON!

I'm gonna have to make fun of her for a while over that one...full well knowing that if I was there, it would certainly happen to me too

3. Yeah, that wrong side of the road thing is tough, even sober!

How's life in the Square Rev?

5. Aw, I thought you meant Dublin, Texas

I was gonna ask you to ask her to send me some Dublin Dr Pepper from Old Doc's Soda Shop. :(

6. I've never had "real" Dr. Pepper

I bet it's pretty damn good

8. I don't think I have, either

Dunno when they switched to high-fructose corn syrup, but it was probably before I started drinking it regularly, which was like 1974.

I think the reason I haven't ordered any from Old Doc's is I'm afraid it might kill me — y'know, kinda like a junkie who's used to heroin that's been stepped on 30 times getting some pure stuff.

10. lol...never thought about it that way

Ironically enough the pure stuff in this case is probably better for you than the HFCS stuff

11. Haruka did it when she went to Dublin

Hopefully, we'll get to do it again together in a couple years.
