Its the REAL thing!

Today Kirk and I did a little shopping.

We got the first season of Ugly Betty.

8405978

And then we went to stock up on Coca Cola….and saw this (Squeals of delight!!!)

Coca Cola with sugar

Coca Cola with…..SUGAR!!!

(Jumps for joy!!)

It’s the REAL thing! I am in heaven. It is every bit as good as I remember.

I really would like Coca Cola to explain to me why I have to wait for a major Jewish holiday or buy Coca Cola imported from Mexico in order to have the real stuff. Why?

And if plastic is so much cheaper than glass, why does the imported Coca Cola from Mexico come in a 12 oz glass bottle? Why?

Oh well, I guess I will ponder that more later. Right now I am going to go sit my butt on the couch with a glass bottle of coke, some buttered popcorn and some Ugly Betty on the tube. Bliss

[this is good]

And I am quite enjoying the other thing we got along with my corn-syrup-free Coke. ^_^

I reeeaaallly want to go back and get another case. The difference in flavor is staggering.

Is that really the cover they went with for the Ugly Betty boxset? I always thought it was something the online retailers mocked up while they were waiting for the proper artwork to come through. Ah well. It's what's on the inside that counts! :)

Yep, that's the cover. The glasses and braces are raised.

I can't figure out what it is about it that annoys me... something to do with the yellow-green grad, and the lettering and the dimensions of the strips. The photo of Betty I'm down with. I'd prefer that to be the whole cover, with the lettering on top of that... or like the title screen on the show, where it's just her braces smiling, and the lettering on red and yellow. I'd afraid if I stare at that cover for too long, I'll go insane. Lucky I can't afford the boxset then!

"I can't figure out what it is about it that annoys me... something to do with the yellow-green grad, and the lettering and the dimensions of the strips."

That's exactly what bugs me about it. It's just plain ugly. There's no design to it at all. It sucks. Now, the Star Trek TOS DVD set we got, that has good design to it.
