mgardziella ~

Thanks. I hope the Cheerwine is as good as you say. I'll let you know what I think later tonight or tomorrow.

Hey Morb ~

Great stuff you posted. Which means you don't get to participate in my little quiz here ... you already gave everybody a clue ???

Cheerwine Quiz Question: What is the following image supposed to represent?
(Providing I have time to properly create it before the edit-stop kicks in).

Osia ~

... no, no, no - not even close. [:D] I bet Morb knows (maybe). Go ahead Morb ... please answer the quiz question for us. But please be prepared for a possible rebuttal. And remember, this is all in the spirit of fun. Thanks.

This next part even rhymes ...

"I'm breaking my own rule by showing everyone this next clue."

[:D] (Sorry Morb - I couldn't wait - This thread doesn't have much chance of survival as it is). [:D]

I did mention them. its the cherries.

Ok the story of the Cherries. The first Cheerwine bottle was just a plain long neck with a CW on the shoulder; however, the company decided to create a deco bottle which looks similar to the latter deco bottles. This bottle had three cherries embossed on the neck, and due to problems with manufacturing of the bottle due to the cherries. The bottles tended to break during manufacturing (according to popular legend).

The bottle with the cherries on the neck. To find out much more about Cheerwine check out Blake's Cheerwine Oldies. Great site, but the music will drive you nuts and there's no way to shut it off.

If you luck out and find a cherries Cheerwine bottle then you have truly found something.

For starters; am I the only one who has to log in ocassionally right after you've finished typing a reply and hit send? Only to discover your entire message was deleted? How annoying. I even made a donation recently and I haven't seen that mentioned yet either. [:mad:]

Hey Morb ~

Thanks. I knew you knew what I thought you knew. If you know what I mean? [:D] Anyhoo ... I have another question for you: I was looking at my bottle with a magnafying glass, and is it possible that part of the cherry embossing is tiny bubbles? You know; like cherries floating in a beverage? No big deal either way, but I was just curious. Plus I have noticed a lot of Cheerwine's claim to fame seems associated with bubbles like in the photo below. Also when I opened Blake's website the first thing I noticed were bubbles gurgling up the page. Whata'ya think? Do I have a valid question?

Muchas Gracias'

Roberto
