HOW CAN I RESIST?

I admit that I'm a Coca-Cola addict; for obvious reasons, I must use the complete name of my drug of choice--Coca-Cola--rather than just "Coke".

I have tried to give up drinking Coca Cola, but I'm like Mark Twain and smoking: "Giving up smoking is the easiest thing in the world. I know because I've done it thousands of times."

This summer, Coca Cola launched a "Share A Coke" campaign (see here) which has 1,000 common names emblazoned on some of its products. Since learning of the campaign, I've been scrutinizing supermarket shelves seeking out "SUE" on Coca-Cola products, but to no avail. I know that "SUE" is available. Seeing my name on the cans prompted me to add personalized Coca Cola cans to my birthday list.

P.T. Barnum was right! How can I resist?
