Coffee shops historically have been a gathering spot for poets, artists and malcontents seeking a forum to espouse their views; which just happens to be the purpose of this community. So, let's have at it.

Coffee Quip - January 2008

....it's a Decafe Sorta Day

January 23rd 2008 02:09
While in the reading room studying for a future exam, I ran across the following article:

Suspects Throw Wads Of Cash Out The Window
LOS ANGELES (AP)

Bank robbery suspects threw handfuls of cash from a speeding car before crashing outside a Los Angeles mall.

So, why can’t these bank robber folks be a little more considerate and let the rest of us know that they’re going to toss money out of the get away vehicle? I mean, there are plenty of cash strapped individuals willing to run interference for the right sized wad of cash. If the wads were actually bundles of 20’s and a free pass from arrest, there’d have been volunteers popping out of hyperspace for a piece of the action.

You're overly caffeinated when:

Your T-shirt says, Decafe is the devil's brew.
Starbucks holds the mortgage on your house and title to your car.
Your last raise included an increased coffee budget allowance.

For several days I have been hiding out; when feeling flu-ish, I withdraw to my secret and well hidden Man Bunker on the couch in the living room, so that healing can occur naturally, free of interference, distractions and public view. Sadly, all future cold remedy deliveries will have to be teleported over, so that no one else risk’s contamination. The W.H.O. has been put on notice and my cell phone has their number set on speed dial. So, all of you should be safe; NOAA has recently recorded the wind speed of my sneezes at under 250mph at 10 feet, so that is much improved. Although my phlem to spittal ratio is off the charts, it is purportedly, treatable. Sympathy cards and cash donations may be submitted via the usual channels.

You know you're over caffeinated when instant coffee takes to long.
You get drunk, just so you can sober up with coffee.
Your twin girls are named Cream and Sugar.

Just when I am feeling that the Hollywood for lunch bunch is totally nutzoid and devoid of humanity; one of their own mucks everything up and does something right, like this:

Johnny Depp Donates $2M to Children's Hospital

Talk about generous... Johnny Depp paid a secret visit to London's Great Ormond Street Children's hospital on Sunday - and donated $2 million of his own money to thank staff for saving his young daughter's life.

For god’s sake, what was he thinking? Has he no concern or feelings for his fellow guild members?

BTW~You're over caffeinated when all of your house plants are mini coffee trees.
You insure your custom coffee mug with Lloyds of London.
Coffeemate is your spouses nickname.

Never post naked and exposed in front of elementals, or go half armed into a battle of wits; sage advice especially for those with both oars near the water.

Do cold remedies react badly to banana lattes?

I'll just have an iced chocolate when you can disturb yourself, Raven, that poor little kid, pushy parents, but can't even use the potty yet.

Would this be a dbl chocolate iced drink or a triple katyzzz? Poor little guy studying on the throne and no parental help to assist with the cross word puzzle, it's so unfair. On the upside, his stock portfolio is hot!

You are a quick with but where do those quips hang out. Just the usual iced chocolate but you'll be in trouble if it's not first class.

Here we don't discriminate against mutiple births, i.e. doubles or triples.
