I went cold turkey. That 7 day migraine sucked more than anything ever before.

A week? You got off easy. When I quit cold turkey a few years ago after drinking 8-12 caffeinated Diet Pepsis a day, I felt like total shit for a month. Headache, body aches, lethargy, exhaustion... It was awful.

But you're absolutely right, once the caffeine was out of my system, I felt great. I could fall asleep at night, I could sleep through the night, waking up in the morning was no problem, I had more energy, and if I ran out of soda, I didn't get a pounding headache. It's one of the best things I've ever done for myself.

New AT&T Acquires BellSouth 406

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Sunday March 05, 2006 @10:33PM from the ma-bell-is-back dept.

spune writes "Only months after SBC's acquisition of AT&T last November, the newly rechristened telecom has announced that it plans to buy fellow Baby Bell BellSouth Inc, of Atlanta, Georgia for $67 billion. This action by AT&T will consolidate more than half of the original Bell System into a single entity, leaving only Verizon and Qwest as remaining Bell family competitors. Analysts predict this deal will be approved by the FCC with only minor restrictions on the new company, which will serve residences and businesses from California to Florida."
