I'm fairly well traveled and I appreciate Che's icon is produced everywhere, and I've certainly seen it in many places, form T shirts to posters, but a can of coke I've seen everywhere! It's just incredible to me that anything is more prevalent than Coke.

Anyway, I guess you must have seen an article or survey about it, so I defer to your knowledge. We learn something everyday.

And now I'm going to eat my lunch with a refreshing can of coke :D

eating lunch from your CHE lunchbox? lol

Now that is funny!

I read that after Billy's funeral the family decided that as a tribute to him (and to make $$$ i'm sure) they were going to be continuing to run his commercials

I guess if you do drugs, and you're a star, it makes no difference. Lets all celebrate Billy Mays, father, uncle, druggie, but boy can he make some money while dead. Lets celebrate, lift one for the old Billy.
