Happy *Slurp* Birthday

- The Kool-Aid Man turned 30 at a birthday celebration in Hastings, Nebraska this past weekend. The grinning pitcher doesn't look a day over 29, even though he's been topped off with Everclear since he was about 10.

- 7-Eleven's brain freezing Slurpee recently turned 40. Over 11 million of them are sold every month, with the most popular flavors being Coke, wild cherry, and banana. Flavors which never caught on include tuna casserole, Drano, and Doug Flutie's Old Sweat Socks.
