Operation Product Test...

[quirky]

Ok, so for months I've been noticing these mystical energy drinks at the supermarket check out.

I couldn't resist buying one today. It's called "Rockstar Energy Drink."

At the bottom of the can it says, "Party like a Rockstar"!

These are pretty impressive claims, right? Who knew that drinking one of these would turn you into a MickJaggerTomPettyJonBonJoviDebbyHarry - esque entity?

Also, the can I bought says it's also "Double Strength and Double Size"!!!

On the side of the can it says, it's enhanced with potent "Milk Thistle"...I'm kind of excited now...I've never had milk thistle!

So, I'm going to start drinking it now and I'll check back in periodically to let you know whether I'm feeling like a Rock Star yet.

Initial Reaction:

Hm...tastes like a cross between cream soda and sour gummi worms.

Does that mean you will be belting out limerick tunes using a bass guiter now?

We had one called 'Kick' where I used to work. It used to make me throw up!

I want to try the Rockstar one, haha! It might transform me into Matt Bellamy. I can thrash around playing a guitar and singing!!

It's just like Red Bull, all this new stuff. It doesn't give you wings...

Here's the beverage:


This is me at the start of the testing:

As you see, I'm already kind of alert.

I'm halfway through. I just had a brief frisson of energy that made me feel Mick Jaggerish....and I tidied the living room.

School's out for summer...but I'm 3/4 of the way through and don't feel any different. I bet this stuff is hell on your tooth enamel.

Peeps is requesting "Bird on a Wire" by Leonard Cohen...

Like a bird on the wire,
Like a drunk in a midnight choir
I have tried in my way to be free.
Like a worm on a hook,
Like a knight from some old fashioned book
I have saved all my ribbons for thee.
If i, if I have been unkind,
I hope that you can just let it go by.
If i, if I have been untrue
I hope you know it was never to you.
