    Kurt I feel your pain and i too will miss my friend Sparks. It was a little miracle in a bottle.

    That is the worst news I have heard all year! This definitely is worse than the economy!! I think we need to have some kind of nationwide official sparks funeral!
    Side point you might want to check your age bracket your cutting off at in the story, I'm 31 and have been drinking sparks since I was 25 and mixing alcohol and caffeine since I was 21. Otherwise great obituary for sparks.

    How about this? Get a jar of Tang, a 40 of Olde English 800, and one of thoes little 5 hour energies. Instant Sparks replacment.

    I recently saw a young man drinking a Sparks at an AA meeting. I didn't know it had alcohol in it. He must have really been enjoying himself. He had been sent there by the court- he must have thought that was a big poke in the eye to somebody. Huh. Thanks for the heads up.

    Too true! I'm donning my black and hoarding all the Sparks I can find under my loft bed.
