i'm trying to get back brad. school and work are KILLING me. i have almost zero free time. i'm actually just fixing to type up some notes for accounting class right now..... JR, world of coca cola is like a museum, they've got TONS of old coke memorabilia, signs and even old coke machines from waayyyy back in the day. you can walk through a miniature factory and botteling plant that tells you all about how its made. you can learn all about the history of coke. they've even got this amazing 4D theatre with a cool little movie that gives you lots of neat info about coke (4D being a 3D film and the seats actually move around the theater) and the coolest part was you could taste up to 64 different coke products from all over the world. you walk into a big room and theres a station for each continent (North america, latin america, europe, africa, asia) and each station has several different coke products. you could have as much and as many as you wanted, all for free. most of them i've never even heard of, some were pretty good but there was a few that were absolutely terrible.

Man that sounds awesome! They had what they called a 4D theater in Baltimore... and it freaked the mess out of my daughter! Seats rumbled, a plastic line tickled your feet, a little rod would poke you in the back, and every time a whale splashed, the seat in front of us sprayed us with a mist! Very exciting...lol

My brother is a real fan of the beverage, has all kinds of memorbilia... Sounds like the type of place he would enjoy for a weekend out... where is this again?

When her date comes to pick her up, my brother will answer the door, play the "good cop" and offer to invite him in. I will be on the couch cleaning a 12 guage and minding my own business, smoking a ciggarette. When he approaches the living room, without even looking up, I will grunt out, "sit down son". Then with out taking my eyes off the gun, while my brother stares him down, I will reiterate the time I want her home. And some how work in the the statement, after a nice chug of beer....lol... "Listen, I have NO problem going back to jail!".....

Emily will hate me like usuall...lol... But i bet him would bring her home on time!

we will see.

We did something like that to some boy that came to pick up my friends daughter we were BBQing and one buddy was leaving so we went to the front of the house and it happen the kid got there and her uncle started asking him questions with a straight face it was so funny and while her uncle moved away I told the kid that's one crazy uncle of hers he just came out of prison the kid didn't say a word. He! He!
