Friday Candy Video

This just might be the best result I've ever seen from a science experiment.  I'm not sure what would make me happier, watching my cola magically turn into a ice, or eating a lot of slushies with very little preparation needed.

Philadelphia Flyers Drink Slushies?

It sounds like an insult at first, all be it no a very clever one, but it's true.  Apparently the trainers of a Flyers have created a slushy drink that allows the players to rehydrate, cool down, and it's apparently somewhat healthy.  Now don't go off thinking you can go on the "Slushy Diet", these guys are athletes so the extra sugar helps them out when they work hard.  You on the other hand probably sit in front of a computer all day, so chances are you'll just get fat.
