Hello friends, for all those poor(lucky?) without WWW access. Besides Click3x http://www.click3x.com/spots/fruitopia.html http://www.click3x.com/spots/fruitopia95.html and John Lights LH´95-tape page: http://delcom.accsyst.com/brian/kate.html I found with some search tools: 1. http://www.wolfe.net/~reboot/faq.html#8 Why do you dislike Fruitopia sodas? Partly because of the doofy ads and mostly because of that nuts-o chick Doctress Fruitopia on USENET. [??] 2. http://pcd.stanford.edu/~mogens/snapple-comments-old.html From: Christian Date: 21. Sep 94 18:18 What's with Fruitopia??? Those ads get in your brain and won't let go. Cloying and sticky brain memes that suck...sugarwater. 3. http://totalny.com/daily/daily8_29.html TUESDAY, AUGUST 29 TRAVELLING FRUITOPIA Until recently, I thought that Fruitopia simply had scary flashback commercials and cool vending machines that provided glass bottles of annoyingly titled juice. However, I clearly underestimated them. They ALSO have a multicolored bus that's touring the nation this summer; a bus that houses the travelling Fruitopia Show. I was lucky enough to catch it here in New York. Play it Fruitopia man! After the end of this promotional show, I spoke with Jim Hinde, singer for the Fruitopia tour (after he handed out complimentary bottles of "Fruit Generation"). I wanted to know if he sang original lyrics or if his songs had a special Fruitopia angle to them. "This show is basically run concurrent, but by itself in relation to the drink." said Jim. "I haven't changed any lyrics to my songs, and none of it is based on Fruitopia, does that make sense?" 4. http://www.pathfinder.com/@@2p33@7AodgMAQGsx/time/magazine/domestic/1994/941 226/941226.best.products.html THE BEST PRODUCTS OF 1994 Fruitopia "Citrus Consciousness" and "Strawberry Passion Awareness" hardly sound like Coca-Cola products. But when the Atlanta soft-drink maker introduced these and other flavors in its new line of Minute Maid Fruitopia drinks last summer, thirsty consumers could not get enough of the noncarbonated, fruit-based beverages. With catchy advertising and Coke's distribution muscle behind it, Fruitopia has wasted no time grabbing a sizable share of the Snapple-led fruit-drink market, like a parched softball player after a hot game. 5. http://www.earthlink.net/~lcurreri/Lee.html Lee Curreri - COMPOSER-PRODUCER FRUITOPIA (with composer Jon Hassell) 1 radio spot - Chiat/Day 6. http://www.armory.com/~crisper/Scorch/Musings/fruitopia Fruitopia officially symbolizes everything in the universe that makes loyal Scorched Earth Party members psychitically violent. We have no problem with the ultimate coopting of counterculture values by corporate America. We're all for it. However, in doing so, we are being bombarded with the most unpleasant anti-hideous violence propaganda imaginable. You know how the commercials go. Psychedelic fruit, throbbing and pulsing rhythmically across the screen. Peaceful, lulling, psyche-penetrating music. Then messages flash on the screen, like: Everything should be... Perfect and beautiful and nice... And it will be... Because you are so enlightened... Because you drink... Raspberry Anti-homophobia Ripple ... This must stop. .... - Jeff Vogel Scorched Earth Party 7. http://www.crl.com/~moj/Fruitopia/fruit.html Words of wisdom found on bottles of Fruitopia(tm) Fruit Integration The person next to you loves you very much. Please share your Fruit Integration with him/her. The Grape Beyond Things that are still right in the cosmos: The perfection of a circle, Beethoven's 9th, white t-shirts, and baseball. Raspberry Psychic Lemonade There is a wonderful person inside you who is dying to get out. Please drink Raspberry Psychic Lemonade and free your spirit! Strawberry Passion Awareness If you can't judge a fruit by the color of its skin, how can you judge a person by theirs? Tangerine Wavelength find the line between joy and bliss. Apple Raspberry Embrace When in doubt, HUG! Tropical Consideration War isn't. Peace will be. Tropical Consideration is. 8. http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~eclectic/o/misc/magic-code.html Chaos is ... Chaos is really just another kind of order. Or at least, I think it said something like that in a Fruitopia commercial. *** END ***
