We were discussing old sodas yesterday including TAB which had the worst taste ever. So, why not a look at some old 60's soda ads. Gee, not sexist at all are they?
One more…why not “tickle you innards” with the first ever Mountain Dew commercial. In the 60's my buddies, Mike, Sheldon and Chris and I would head to the 6th Street Stop n Go (where Gunderson Cleaners is now) for Mountain Dew and Taco Flavored Doritos (two new inventions). We would also try and sneak a peek at the girlie magazines behind the counter.
ummmmm….yaaaa

Former Badger womens hockey goaltender Ann-Marie Desbiens, who is also the Canadian Olympic goalie…is still a student at UW-Madison and has now been banned from playing co-ed intermural hockey because some players on other teams complained she is too good. UW's Rec Sports Director John Horn says the rule is standard practice across the country and in place to prevent teams from being “stacked” in leagues that are supposed to be “recreational” in nature. Desbiens says she cant believe that people are that competitive over possibly winning a tee-shirt. What do you think? Should athletes that competed interscholastically be able to play intermurals after their eligibilty is over?
