While I was getting my oil changed the other day, the mechanic pointed out that my battery was corroded and that I could get rid of it with Coca-Cola. Not by drinking it, mind you, but by pouring it on the battery.

Geez, I'm going to have to stop drinking Diet so that I have the high-test stuff around for all those helpful hints. Carpet stains. Cleaning the driveway grease. Who would have known?
I've known that for a while. If you really want to scare your godkids, have them put a nail into a glass filled with coke and watch what happens to the nail over a week or so.
Fortunately, the acid in our stomachs is stronger than coke, unless you drink tons of it. Or so I'm told, anyway.
Yeah, the old baking-soda-and-water trick probably wouldn't have had near the impact on the kids. On the other hand, it wouldn't leave your engine compartment all sticky.
