Default Free Dr. Pepper

In late October, MTV News brought you details of Dr Pepper’s offer to
provide every American with a free can of the pop should Guns N’ Roses
release their eagerly awaited album Chinese Democracy in 2008. Now,
here’s an update on the soda maker’s vow.

Yesterday — the day the GN’R record hit stores — Dr Pepper’s site was
flooded with visitors looking to cash in on the deal. Due to
overwhelming demand and several site issues, Dr Pepper has extended
the offer until 6 p.m. today; the deal was originally set to expire
last night at midnight. Participants have until February 28 to redeem
their coupon for a 20-ounce can of the drink.

Dr Pepper had to increase its server capacity and set up a toll-free
number (1-888-DRPEPPER or 1-888-377-3773) to handle the demand. So if
you couldn’t access the Dr Pepper site yesterday — or completely
forgot about the offer — you still have plenty of time to get in on
the action.

They're the same people who watch Jerry Springer and Judge Judy.

show on our low-rent broadcast station. judge joe brown, judge alex, and a
couple others. no judge judy, though. she must be too dignified for that
kind of thing.

Judge Judy is ENORMOUSLY popular and so she is RICH RICH RICH, blake...no
need to go on low - rent cable access shows, she can see "low - rent" every
day with the idjits that parade through her court room...I LOVE it when she
lands on these mental morons, heehee.

In Kalifornia recently she married cabaret singer Michael Feinstein and his
partner, those in attendance included Joan Collins and Tony Martin (widower
of Cyd Charisse) and Michelle Lee...the whole shebang sounded like a real
blast.

When you have *your* *** wedding wouldn't you choose Judge Judy to "marry"
you, too, blake...???

;-P
