When I go to Ohio State to major in Sports Journalism, this is what I am going to do. I won't stop there, because I will try to dress and make the team.

In the South you say "I'm going to get a six pack of Coke" and then come back with Orange Crush. It doesn't matter. Pop is Coke.

Soda. Or soft drink. That's what it says on the menu at a restaurant, and that's good enough for me.
