Re: 6.5 ounce refillable Coke bottles
I grew up in a fairly large family and a favorite tradition when we were allowed to each buy a Coke was to see whose bottle came from the furthest away. When we went out to the diner we always took a US map with us where each bottle was mapped and marked with the kid's initial.

Re: Ding Dong over Thatcher song makes the BBC no better than China
So if I showed up at your mother's funeral and started singing the song "Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead", you would think I was merely singing a children's tune? Really?
I'd think you were a no class sophomoric kid; someone to laugh at and pity.

Re: Ed Brooke, 95
And would be so far to the left today that he probably couldn't get elected as a Democrat. He was a Rockefeller Republican, part of the Liberal Republican Party, but even Goldwater would be too far left for today's Republicans.
