The first batch of 12,000 bottles, priced about $1.50 (96p) for half a litre, were distributed in the capital, La Paz, as well as Santa Cruz and Cochabamba.
That's more expensive than the real Coca Cola...Who in Bolivia can actually afford this?

Hope is the denial of reality
Not the people who are already partaking of coca leaves to avoid the feeling of starvation.

This sure made me do WTF today: a freak crash of Buemi during a training session for the Formula 1 GP in Shanghai.

A small church in Godfrey made history Friday.
For the first time in 163 years, its members have running water.
"Seeing that the development is coming up around, they figured we had water because of all the homes around but we didn't," said the Rev. Brian Williams Sr., pastor of Rocky Fork Church.
The church, once a link in the Underground Railroad, tried to get a water line but learned it was too expensive.
"When we tried to get the water line in, it was in the hundreds of thousands as far as labor and material cost," Williams said.
So time marched on, until the congregation finally decided to take matters into its own hands.
"We realized we could do it ourselves," Williams said. "You know, our labor, our costs. And, we did it."
The project cost about $3,000. Before this, church members would tap into a nearby fire hydrant for water, paying a quarter a gallon and trucking the water back to a tank at the church.
"We would use water for the dishes and the bathroom. ... We just never drank it. We just used it for flushing toilets and all that," said the pastor's mother, Joan Williams.
The original church was built in 1863 by Erasmus Green and Andrew Jackson Hindman, the great-great grandfather of the current pastor.
That building burned down in the late 1920s. Rebuilt shortly afterward, the church used bottled water for such rites as baptisms.
Church leaders said attendance has improved with the new water line.

Hi Marby! Glad you finally decided to surface over here!
WTF---today is a 2nd Amendment rally in Virginia, and they're all toting guns in a public park. Why didn't someone tell them today is the anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing? Maybe it's just me, but that sounds like either poor planning, or purposely stirring up public emotion and in bad taste.![]()

Bad mood today, huh.The bombing was part of using "violence to show our hatred of government" and all that. A lot of these gun guys are saying "we need our guns to protect against the government", not just self-protection from citizen criminals, but suggesting a militia or coup in the future.
And you damn well know it.![]()
By your logic, all dissent or political protest should be banned on certain dates. (Or, at the very least, is in "bad taste.")

The light that once I thought compassion still casting shadows in your action
The words you shared were cold transactions that bring me to curse what you've done
When you're up there absorbed in greatness with such success you've grown complacent
I hope you scorch your many faces when you fly too close to the sun
Not at all, I didn't say one word about BANNING.![]()
But if they're totally unaware of important recent historical violence, they also can't use that as a "talking point" to describe what their real intent is....or what their real issue/rally is about. On a day when (at least media) would be asking those questions. Bad taste, bad PR, bad planning, whatever you want to call it.

A WTF within the WTF thread.
Now really, what kind of group holds a pro gun rally on the anniversary of a domestic bombing, assuming they want media coverage for their "cause"? They either want to ride the coat tails of violence, or don't want to be associated with that kind of thing. Which is it here?
Besides me grasping at straws and all....
Eww.A Brooklyn, N.Y., man loves pizza so much that he intends to eat it for every meal, every day, for an entire month.
Nick Sherman told News 12 in Brooklyn he plans to eat pizza at a difference place every day this April.
He said the hardest part so far is missing out on all the other food he can't have, such as macaroni and cheese and candy. He said he almost slipped and came close to eating a churro the other day.
"I saved it until we got to the pizzeria and put it on top of my pizza," he said.
The graphic designer said he's always loved pizza. Growing in Massachusetts, he tried to visit every pizzeria in the area.
Now in New York, he's hitting up all the hot spots in Brooklyn and beyond.
He said that once pizza month is over, his first meal will likely again be pizza.
We're stuck in a bloody snowglobe.
To be fair, there are some really good pizzerias in Brooklyn. *makes pizza*

Considering some of the weird shit just CiCis makes, he shouldn't have much trouble with variety.
Steve Jobs once again confirms his wish to become society's moral policeman. His obvious biasness isn't new but to flat out admit this goal, and to push people to another platform is a true WTF for Apple.
we do believe we have a moral responsibility to keep porn off the iPhone. Folks who want porn can buy and (sic) Android phone
Not really... he's been doing it for decades with his whole "use our products as I say, or I'll sue the shit out of you" business plan. The only WTF thing about it all is that Apple products are all the chic thing for lefties and creative/artistic techies (image/video editing and the like). You'd think they would want freedom of expression and the like, but instead they side with the moralistic, uptight ego-maniac who'll sue anyone with an original idea about how to use his products.
Sort of like the whole musicians wearing Che Guevara shirts... you're idolizing the guy who tried to ban music and called artists worthless parasites... alrighty, then!

He doesn't want to police society, he wants to sell his product to the demographics who think pornography is a gateway drug to rape and heroin. Maybe rape on heroin, I haven't seen Dr Phil in ages.
In the future, the Berlin wall will be a mile high, and made of steel. You too will be made to crawl, to lick children's blood from jackboots. There will be no creativity, only productivity. Instead of love there will be fear and distrust, instead of surrender there will be submission. Contact will be replaced with isolation, and joy with shame. Hope will cease to exist as a concept. The Earth will be covered with steel and concrete. There will be an electronic policeman in every head. Your children will be born in chains, live only to serve, and die in anguish and ignorance.
The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.
Health costs to high? Screw the Affordable Care Act, offer your doctor chickens!
Fucking dickwads who discriminate based on sexual orientation...
You'd think the members of a gay-sports organization might have experienced that sort of shit firsthand, and would therefore not do it to others.Three bisexual men have filed a federal lawsuit against a national gay-sports organization, claiming they were unfairly deemed not gay enough to play for a gay softball team during the Gay Softball World Series.
That's what I get for thinking.
