Greetings, all,
What began as a question about the titillative qualities of cherry coke has,
at least reckoning, degenerated to:
>>Well, I recall a spirited jr. high conversation that cocacola used as a
>>post-coital douche would kill sperm. Don't recall if cherry flavoring had
>>any advantage. So many uses, so little education...

>I've heard this, too. Also, somewhere along the line, I heard that using

>soda shop, while the plain stuff could be purchased anytime from a machine
>down near the drugstore or the local gas station) was not only a common

Not only does the Coca-cola cause the sperm cells to retreat, the
combination of caffeine and the release of CO2 from solution hyper
accelerates the sperm. A-and the hyper acceleration of the sperm causes
them to jump from their normal, diffuse S-shell configuration to the more
concentrated, lobulate P-shell configuration; whereby the danger of
dis-semination along the x-axis rises exponentially, causing the
impregnation of innocent women in the vicinity. Thus we see: the Baby Boom
eventuated not, as has so frequently been postulated, as a result of the GI
Bill funding returning post-belletristic coitus but more as the consequence
of urban legend, quantum mechanics, and caffeinated carbonation.
