Can anyone help me with a red neck item that would look semi-decent with this? :3

You don't need red on your neck because the parrot's head there.
But the cutie scarf might work if you must have red there.

LOL. Poor Cami. No fizzy happiness for you.
I really like your current avatar, btw. When User's Pick opens up again, if you're still wearing it, remind me to nominate you for it because it's fabulous. :B
Also - do you guys know why Coca-Cola called it "classic"?
Huge Public Relations/marketing nightmare back in the 1980s. I've studied it about ten times for classes in my major. D:
One trivia point for the first person to respond with the right answer. ;p

Bing bing bing bing! ::awards trivia point to Cherry:: XD
People freaked out because Coca-Cola changed the flavor for their cola and people were all, "NEW Coke? I want the OLD Coke! Not this new shit!" sales plummeted, everyone was pissed off at Coca-Cola. That's when Pepsi really got a foothold in the cola market - because people switched brands. XD;
The funny thing is, when people were doing taste tests, everyone preferred the "new Coke" taste. Or largely preferred, anyway. But because the old version wasn't available any longer and also they weren't "asked" - consumers rejected New Coke.
If you're at all into Public Relations or Advertising or Marketing or anything like that, you'll probably study that case a lot. :B

I have heard about that case before. I hadn't realized it was so long ago though.

Yeah, I've heard some people say that Coke Zero tastes a lot like New Coke. And personally, I drink Coke Zero.
I do find advertising and marketing interesting, though. I don't think I'll go into it, though. I find marketing tactics to be way too under-handed, most of the time.
I take it you're going into it?

Okay, so change of plans. Family decided to go to the movies and dinner so I couldn't update, and I have to be heading off to bed so that I can get to work in the morning without being a zombie (or more of a zombie than usual), so I'll be updating as soon as I get home from work tomorrow after I take a shower and find something to eat.

I haven't really decided. I might put it off, might not. Depends on when the scores get in and when I have time to get it up and started which could be halfway through the event anyways, so .. who knows? I'll let you guys know later : )

I don't drink any of them anymore. XD But if I did, it'd be Cherry Coke.
I'm a Public Relations major... I actually tend towards marketing/advertising or event coordination/promotions. Don't like damage control.
I'm not too much into the manipulations of emotions or sly avoidance of stating all the facts. I'm leery of really getting involved in true PR (or even marketing/advertising) for fear of being asked to compromise my integrity (or feel that it has been by people lying to me and me reporting the lies).
Of course, ideally the rule of Public Relations is to tell the truth because if contrary-wise comes out, you're ten shades of screwed. But I think we're all aware that people lie anyway. With full knowledge of what they're doing.

You guys, I need to postpone the updating. I know I keep doing this to you, but I need to hear back from Navi first because she hasn't posted in the thread since the last round and I don't know if she actually saw the challenge or not. As soon as I figure out what happened with her, I'll update.

Oh, it's all right with me, Seiki~ =) Now that you mention it though, it's only now that I've noticed how she hasn't been posting. =\ I had figure she sent in her entry through PM but didn't post here, but I guess that's not the case. ^^;; I hope she's okay though. =O
