Pepsi at least figured it out, and yeah could just be appearances, but maybe just a little itty bity bit. To quit paying 2billion a second for superbowl commercials then raising prices. They are reportedly trying to start some kind of aid program with that money now. |

Trying selling something that no one has to buy could hardly be called robbery. Pepsi at least figured it out, and yeah could > just be appearances, but maybe just a little itty bity bit. Pepsi is an inferior product compared to the original commercial one. Before that it was homemade and the recipe was commonly known. > To quit > paying 2billion a second for superbowl commercials then raising > prices. They are reportedly trying to start some kind of aid program > with that money now. > Hey if people will pay it (and it's US $100,000's per 10 seconds) then that's called a free market. It's just a marketing blip. Like Christmas for the stores. In any case I can see nothing in your post that is near On topic. So I'll do it. Lately I've been practicing on Bathurst (Mt. Panorama) and the only thing I've seen that does it justice is the movie "Love the Beast". Those cuts through the rocks are just unreal. |
