Yes, I think I learned the Saltine lesson - I think the same thing happened last time I had food poisoning.  And funnily, I've always heard that 7-Up is calming, but it has never been calming, not once - I think someone from 7-Up started that old wives' tale.  I do much better with Diet Coke, frankly.  That has never caused my nausea to get worse, whereas Snapple has.

I think the Coke or Seven-Up for Nausea thing requires that the Coke or Seven-Up be flat, first.

Who waits around for their Coke or Seven-Up to go flat?  If you're nauseous, you're nauseous right now!

ii (twice) is next to o
and he got the e and r correct

Obviously, his right hand was off on the keyboard, while his left was properly placed. All the right hand keys were shifted one to the left.

I know people who swear by flat coke, it never worked for me.  With either 7 Up or Coke, you must wait at least 10 minutes in-between sips or it makes you worse.

Exactly.  I feel the same way about ginger ale.  Who buys flat ginger ale?  And how long does it take for non-flat ginger ale to go flat?  If I'm nauseous, waiting an hour or two won't help things along.

Flat Coke goes down the drain at my house.  I wouldn't even pour it over a roast before putting it in the oven.

(And, yes....we Southerners have been known to pour a Coca-Cola over a roast prior to popping the roast into a hot oven).

MORONS!

I'm so weary of dealing with them over at Film Score Monthly messageboard.

One fellow -- in a thread about how hard Jake Gyllenhaal is taking Heath Ledger's death -- took issue with someone's comment about "Brokeback Mountain's" importance as a film.

I posted I thought it was HUGE for American cinema.  He demanded to know why.  I told him.  He then pronounced that "Philadelphia" and "Kiss of the Spider Woman" had already broken that ground.  I countered that neither film was a "love story" and that neither film went as far in exploring relationships nor had the emotional impact that "Brokeback" had.

He then began arguing with me that "Brokeback" was nothing special and contrasted its $75 million boxoffice (and raves from "left-leaning" critics and their organizations that gave the film prizes) to the more than $100 million take of "The Passion of the Christ" and categorized that film as having far more of an impact, blah blah blah blah (including its cold reception by the "left-leaning" press).

I asked him what on earth he was talking about?  I saw no parallels between the films or anything I'd said.

We bantered, and I finally told him I thought his points were silly.

Today, he's taken me to task for not discussing his points.

Sigh.

I told him I had said everything I was going to say about his points....those I thought relevant AND those I thought absurd.  I suggested he grind his political axes with someone else because I've no interest in them.
