    Mini bottle?

    Yes, I've actually done it before and yes, Coke eats away the meat. Pretty gross... but Coke tastes so good.

    And your car battery. :eek:

    That is why I only drink it once to twice a week. ;)

    I prefer Diet Pepsi or Mountain Dew (which helps for a quick burst of energy). :D

    I haven't heard of that before, but I will believe you.

    Yes it does.....I can't believe they used to put actual "Coke" in it to addict people to it so they would buy it. ;)

    When I first heard of that, I couldn't believe it. Of course that was several years ago when I was pretty little. :rolleyes:

    The bars in South Carolina cannot mix drinks with regular sized bottles. The bars have to pour drinks from mini bottles (the little bottles you get on an airplane).

    It was originally thought that using the little bottles would help bartenders control how much alchol was in each drink, but the problem is that when you order a mixed drink..say a b52 for example that would normally be a shot, it now becomes three shots (of course at three times the amount it would cost 20 minutes down the road in Georgia.)

    You've never experienced stupid liquor laws until you've lived in South Carolina.

    The rule is that alcohol can only be sold in whole bottles -- a bar isn't allowed to pour a portion from a larger bottle. This means if you want a mixed drink, you have to have it so the smallest amount of liquor is in a 2-oz. airline-style bottle. It's pretty amusing to see someone making a Long Island Iced Tea!

    I think that all changes on Jan 1 though. South Carolina voters overturned that law in Nov.

    Since I have not drank an alcoholic beverage since June 1988. It would probably make me drunk very very very quickly. :speechles
    Last smoke was May 1987 if any of you wanted to know. :nono:

    My last smoke was when I was 16... but it was too late.

    Don't smoke. Even 20-year-olds can get cancer.

    I gave up cigarettes in college, now it's the occasional cigar that keeps me going.

    Not quite the votors enabled the legislature the ability to change the law, the law makers still have to do that.

    Suppliers to the bars are lobbying against it because they make more money on mini bottles. And are afraid the bar owners will buy their booze at retail prices instead of wholesale.

    Ah, it was mis-reported in other parts of the country. It made it sound as if the voters had changed the old law.

    Yep that would have made a better headline, you know the news report what sounds good, not what's accurate.
