Surely you've noticed that the popular sugary beverage Dr Pepper contains 23 flavors. But did you also know that it was first developed in Waco Texas? A little over a century later Waco was of course home to the infamous massacre of a the Branch Davidian religious cult by the United States Federal Government on April 19. (4+19=23) Two years later the Oklahoma city bombing was launched on the same date in retaliation for that event. And four years and a day later on 4-20-1999 the Columbine High School shooting occurred. The story goes that the young shooters were forced to postpone their assault by a day but had originally intended to launch the attack on 4-19. Coincidentally 4-20 was Adolf Hitler's birthday. 4-20-1889 (4+2+0+1+8+8+9=32)
According to DrPepper.com the company categorically denies the presence of prune juice in their beverage, but as far as I can tell there is no mention of blood.
