Sad times are here for us

[Bird]

I've often wondered about coffee keeping people awake. As long as I could remember, the last thing my Dad did before going to bed at night was to have a final cup of coffee (didn't use decaffinated either).

My wife and I have been married over 42 years, but as long as I've known her, she drinks coffee from the time she gets up in the morning until she goes to bed at night.

Until I retired, I was spending most of my time at a desk in an office and I drank coffee from the time I got up in the morning until I left the office about 5:15 p.m. each day. But for quite a few years now, I only drink coffee from the time I get up until about noon. Then I change to cold drinks; frequently sipping iced tea until bedtime.

I could easily do like escavader and go through two pots but my big ol' stanley thermos plus a cup only holds one.

ACTUALLY i make a pot at 4 am drink 1 cuptake 1 in travel mug[35 minute commute] and fill my thermos .At 9.00 break guys skip up to store ,get me a big cup,again at 2.00 and again at 5.00 break.Thats a pot plus 3-24 oz ers.Plus i drink a diet pepsi for lunch,thats got caffene .I think the planer mill crew likes to keep me cranked up cause ill run around like a chicken with my head cut off all day.We wont tell them the lazyer i am the slower the boards come out,they are only hurting themself

Yesterday our coffee maker quit working, now what ( Proctor Silex ) ? what am I to do without our morning wake upper?

I read all the posts. I can't believe no one suggested getting that clown down most streets to brew you some morning coffee. I have heard that McDonalds place has been voted best coffee? Heck, while your there you can get a gourmet breakfast.

P. S. I like coffee a lot. Over the years I would guess I have had coffee in 90% ot the diners in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. My most favorite meal is hot roast beef sandwich with mashed and gravey. Finish off with home made pie and coffee. The old diners always had good hot beef and pie. Good coffee???

Down here, most of us are used to drinking coffee with chicory. When you get used to it and go up north for coffee, theirs tastes like dishwater. Guess it's all what you're used to.

I like your coffee. Used to order it from Cafe du Monde all the time. Got out of the habit.

My MIL doesn't like it. She says don't fix any of that coffee with chickweed in it. Wish I could find some chickweed . . . .

And those good ole diners, my best man at our wedding worked at one in Biddeford, Maine a long time ago, it was called the Palace Diner and it was a converted train car done in stainless steel inside, nice and quaint
