A curious invention, the soda. One can't help but to think that at once it's purpose was to be some sort of pranking device. Otherwise, why would you booby-trap a drink? Refreshing as the beverage is, I can't help but to tear up and burp with each sip of soda. Not to mention the odd brand names of each soda company: Coca Cola, Dr. Pepper, and the worst name of all, Root Beer. Although some say it is not a soda. But it tastes and feels like soda to me. Now Pepsi and Sprite, they aren't such bad names after all (listen to me, I sound like a story book). Because Pepsi seems like an original enough name to me and Sprite actually sounds like a real word. Maybe it is. If it is, my mind can not remember its meaning. Not that I might actually know but then again, I am rambling about nothing so, if I have nothing else to critisize about soda, I best be on my way (there you go, another strange saying. I'll top that one off later). As they say in Italy, Chow!
