Hey, a new GLOAT!

[Robatoy]

That's not a coffee.....that's a slice of cake!

Very black...with an oil-slick on top. From a wire-mesh (french) press. No cream.

One of those, which lives somewhere between an espresso and a regular coffee, moves me all morning...to and from different directions.

I only have one of those when my green tea doesn't get me going..and green tea almost always does. I get real cranky if I don't have my green tea.

One teaspoon of demerara sugar on my cereal (with a 'green' banana, 'cuz ripe bananas are useless from a nutritional standpoint ) is all the sugar I have all day. (That small bowl of frozen yogurt after supper doesn't count.)

We won't ACK the gloat until we see that HE picks up the tab. ;)

Don't like broccoli eh? You could be president some day.

BTW, before _Get Smart_ there was the _Jose Jimenez Show_ in which Don Adams played the role of the Hotel Detective. One of his catch phrases in that role was "Would you believe...". Dunno about "Missed it by THAT much."

AND - Adams was the father=in=law of Jim Beaver who played Charlie Udder in the "Deadwood" TV series. (At least that's what Jim said in the rec.movies NG.) Actually, I can't remember what Adams looked like. I could never take my eyes off Barbara Feldon!

I think Adams was the voice of Inspector Gadget - a cartoon spoof of Get Smart which was a spoof of...

your office is a couple few blocks from the new LV store?

give your wife my condolences.

[bridger]

that's because all flavored coffees are awful. if you buy them that way, that is. flavored coffees are what the commercial roasters use to get rid of the stuff that is too foul to drink.... cover the taste up with some chemical flavorants.

but start with some decent bean, use good quality stuff for the rest of the ingredients and the results can be a lot of fun.

Ayup. And I get an hour for lunch...
