I'll raise my Diet Coke to a Happy Fourth!

I'm not going to lie, I've been fading a bit this afternoon...just not enough sleep and too much work, I guess. But I'm finally starting to perk up, thanks to the can of Diet Coke I just chugged. Sometimes, that's all it takes to get me moving again.

By the way, I was just surfing the 'net and discovered that the Diet Coke website features a few tasty recipes ideal for the Fourth of July weekend. Here are two examples:

Garden-Fresh Tomato Basil Pasta

Grilled Peaches with Vanilla Ice Cream and Raspberry Sauce

On a different, but Diet Coke-related note, I'd been hearing some chatter about the soft drink's new international ad campaign, featuring a group of dancing marionettes. As a child of the '80s, I love the "Maniac" and "Flashdance" references. Still, I'm not sure if the commercial is funny or creepy...or both.
What says you?
