I just went to 7-11 to fill up my gas tank and grab some ice cream (a request from my wife), and, as I walked past the refrigerated beverages, a couple of cans amongst the energy drinks caught my eye:
Well, now, how could I resist? I plunked down my $2.49 and bought myself a can of the number one “Asian Experience Energy Drink” on the market. (Note: Position on list of Asian Experience Energy Drinks estimated.)
As soon as I got home, I ran to my wife and said, “Honey, look! It’s ‘a natural energy drink packed with vitamins and exotic botanicals,’ says Steven Seagal! You know you want to try it!” She looked at me as though I’d lost all sense of sanity, but she tried it.
Jenn Harris says: “Ugh. That’s disgusting.”
Steven, if you want that testimonial, I’m sorry, it’s gonna cost you. Have your people call my people; I’m sure we can come up with a deal that’s agreeable to both parties.
Me, I don’t think it’s nearly that bad…but, then, I didn’t buy it for the taste. I bought it as a conversation piece…and on that level, it most certainly succeeds.
UPDATE – 10:19 PM: Note to self. Steven Seagal’s Lightning Bolt is dangerous, dangerous stuff. I have cleaned the living room, watched four episodes of “Charles in Charge,” transferred burned countless MP3 files to disc, and may possibly have done a jig. Next up: trying to read a book…if my eyes will focus.
