I went last night to go pick up a drink for my wife.  I went to the gas station and got the Lipton Peach tea.  There were two options.  There was the option of getting it out of the glass container.  That is how it is usually packaged.  But there was a new bottle that had the same drink in a plastic bottle.  The plastic bottle had more tea in it so I bought it.

I brought the bottle home to my wife and she told me she didn’t like the taste of the tea.  She said it is “just different.”  I was wondering how it can be different when it is just packaged differently.   

I like velveeta cheese slices.  But I have noticed that I can eat that same cheese out of the big package and I don’t like the taste of it.  I don’t know if it is just eating it in a larger quantity that causes me to not like it.  

The same thing will happen with a Pepsi out of a can.  I have heard people say that a Pepsi tasted different when it is out of a can than when it is in the bottle.  I have heard people mention that is because the can is aluminum. 

Do drinks or food taste differently according to their packaging or is it psychological?

Do you think Lindsay Lohan is really anorexic?

I was reading an article by Jessica Vascellero from the Wall Street Journal.  According to the article, people on myspace are pretending to be celebrities.  There are at least 12 Paris Hiltons and 16 David Spades.

This has caused some frustration among users of myspace.  Some of them are said to be dumbfounded when they find out that the celebrities aren’t real.

One girl is said to have been offended when she left a message on what she thought was Pamela Anderson’s site.  She told Pamela something special that came from the heart.  She told Pamela, “You’re hot.”  Just imagine when she found out it wasn’t Pamela Anderson after all.   

I know you are asking yourself the same question that I am asking myself:  The celebrities from xanga and myspace are fake?   

A lady got mad at her husband because he was watching MTV.  There was a certain video that would come on by “The Pussycat Dolls” and he would pay special attention each time.   

Should the lady get mad at her husband or should she pass it off as normal husband behavior?

A bride wearing white at a wedding was at one time a symbol that the woman was a virgin.  It stood for purity. 

Should a woman wear white at her wedding if she is not a virgin?
