Look what I found! In June 2012, a farmer from Iowa found a 14,000-year-old woolly mammoth skeleton in his backyard! Sorry... Coke! North Korea and Cuba are the only countries on earth where Coca-Cola is not sold! Anil Barela of India had a 3 1/2 inch long fish from his lung after swallowing it during a game!

And that is why, Anil, you’re supposed to chew your food as well as not play with it.

Also the only two countries without CIA posing as Coca Cola employees.

So much for Coke teaching the world to sing! Yeah Win, they pose as other employees. Dont think the CIA arent in country just because Coke doesnt sell there.

I believe Coca-Cola was in Cuba before the Castros took over.

How do they make Cuba Libres?

It’s not sold there, if I remember right, because the Coca Cola company has chosen not to ship it to those countries due to their dictatorships…not because the countries don’t allow it to be sold there.

I had a cohiba removed from my lung once; but I digress ;

I hope the surgeon didn’t have to fish around for a lung time before he removed it. On a ‘scale’ of 1 to 10, how ‘finny’ is that one? If I go too long with this, someone will have a ‘bone’ to pick with me. Will it be a boy or a ‘gill’? Stay ‘tunaed’!

There are plenty of close enough colas available, especially if you’re going to add rum.

Coke and Pepsi used to have their corners in the USA also. At one time, Coke was readily available in Dallas. A brother-in-law that lived in Dallas would stock up on Pepsi when he visited us in Illinois as it was hard to find in Dallas, at that time.

What kinds of games do they play in India – involving fish?

Coke and Pepsi both were doing damage control in India while I was there. That’s because both products were found with over the top levels of pesticides, herbicides and other lovelies. Yum! If that’s not enough, both companies have also drained small villages and farms dry by sucking up all the water after moving manufacturing plants there. Awesome! Not only is Coke & Pepsi contributing to illness, obesity and tooth rot, but they won’t even try to conserve water. So drink up and toast to these disgusting corporations.

No, I think that would be INHALING it, not swallowing it.

Last time I was in Cuba (Guantanamo Base 1989) they still sold coke (on the base). Maybe they don’t sell it in the rest of the country, I don’t know, we weren’t allowed off the base.

Nah, just well read and somewhat experienced.
