Front Range, dude...
I have been informed by @Full Trucker that I have indeed become more crotchety and jerk-like in recent years. So let this be my public apology to all of you. Well, most of you. Some of you, perhaps.

I will be less of a jerk-face in the future, and will not correct kidwoo's incorrect use of data/datum in particular.

thank you for your attention
Welcome to the club...

Thanks to y'all hecklers I did an experiment: went Diet Coke-less for 9 days. Just cracked one open.

Nothing really seemed different except for the lack of caffeine in and of itself. (Was too lazy to bust out the French press--the convenience of the can is so great!) I did drink more water in place of the Diet Cokes I'd normally swill but that's a neutral swap as far as I am concerned.

Didn't sleep better or worse, in particular, and didn't seem more or less crazy. You all probably did not notice any difference from baseline externally.

In the summertime I like to sully my gin with fresh squeezed lemon juice, agave, and Topo Chico. Pretty sure @SkaredShtles knows of what I speak.

But also, I wouldn't kick a pickle brine gin martini out of bed for eating crackers.
