Well, I tried one of the new Mt Dew flavors yesterday, and I have to say that I was not impressed. This SuperNova flavor is supposed to be “Dew with a blast of strawberry, melon flavor, and ginseng.” However, to me it tasted more like grape cool-aid. True, it wasn’t spit-it-out-of-your-mouth bad, but it certainly wasn’t good. Of the entire 20oz bottle, I only managed to drink about 6oz. If you know me, you know that says alot about the drink!

There are two other new flavors as a part of the current Mt Dew advertising campaign. I might try the other two if I am a) feeling luck or b) entirely out of other options to drink. We shall see….

Yesterday my brother and I went over to the Cueball here in Salem and played some pool. It was his idea and it turned out to be alot of fun. Although I hadn’t really played in about 5 years (and only 5 months for him) I didn’t do too badly and ended up winning a few games. After starting out with a couple warm-up games of 8 ball, we switched over to 9 ball and had alot of fun.

For those of you in Salem, give the Cueball on State St. a try. The cost is only $5/hr for two people on a table. In all we played for just under 2 hours, and it cost $8.50. This is one thing Ryan and I will do again!
