Coca Cola Blak

I went to the product launch here at Dundas Square in Toronto for Coca Cola Blak, their new "cola coffee fusion beverage".

DJ'd by Chester Wong, with body painting organized by Simone Denny, the Coke reps were busy distributing free bottles of the new concoction to one and all.

The only thing that darkened this fine summer day were 2 loud electronic displays screaming out images of Paris Hilton.

And oh yes, the drink. Surprising taste at first, but slightly marred by the aspartame aftertaste.

But last night, it showed up in a Google video documentary on Salvador Dali. Don't have a Quicktime (yet)....

Smoking Fetish

This may be one of the strangest fetishes I've ever heard of, let alone seen.

YouTube has dozens of videos of people smoking...that's right, smoking, and cigarettes no less.



And there are fans.

"tweekinup:
Damn by far the hottest smoke on board, lets see parts 2, 3 , 4, and 5"

Smoking 2 at once seems to have extra rating boosting effects, as does the following:

And this is news how?

"People in Britain view the United States as a vulgar, crime-ridden society obsessed with money and led by an incompetent president whose Iraq policy is failing, according to a newspaper poll."

I live just north of them. They've always been like that.
