How about having some mate while listening to Soulfly? Contrary to another
post that said mate is relatively mild, I've found it very high in caffeine.
And Soulfly is very high in aural stimulation--you might get some interesting
positive feedback going <grin> I've found both mate and Soulfly too intense
for my old age . . .
Is a beverage like mate (like tea, like coffee, etc) a meme or is its use a
meme? It's role in the society where it is used? (as with coffee's close
association with sociability in US society?
