Years and years ago I had to cut caffeine (doctor's orders, y'know). Did it gradually over about two or three weeks. I haven't eliminated it totally -- I do have one (um, large) regular brew before hitting the road for work, otherwise there would be some difficulty driving a long distance at oh-dark-thirty. I take my own thermos of decaf to work; the boss has been known -- I am not making this up! -- to brew office coffee with garlic in it.

Only he knows why...

Is he trying to keep the hociR at bay?

Since y'all are so quiet, I'll share some Mardi Gras history.

Joe Cain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Today is Joe Cain Day. You couldn't pay me a million dollars to go downtown today. It will be rowdy, drunken carousing. Rowdy even for Mardi Gras.

Say that five times fast.

Drunk.

Without giggling, burping or falling down. For extra credit!

As Johnny Carson might have said .... "I did not know that."

I can image the "party" ... J

You realize however that I will need to suck the chocolate off of the peppermint bits, right?

What you do in the privacy of your sleeper cab is none of my biz... if there's pink/white stuff mixed in the (dark) brown stuff, I ain't touchin' it ... just sayin' ...

More likely to keep the staff at bay. (took a looonnngg time to flush the garlic out of the coffeemaker)

It's not likely he knows the hociR threat, but I imagine he'll find out after Tokyo falls. Or not. He'll be happily snapping the backs of people's heads with his faux-Leica (nee Panasonic) P&S and will miss the action.

I'll do my part to get the pink/white stuff out of the (dark) brown stuff for you. I just can't guarantee the consistency of it after my job is done.

Yahbut... sounds to me that when your job is done, there won't be any (dark) brown stuff.

So I'll just have to get my own uncontaminated portion, and bequeath all the chocolate with pinky/white bits to you.

St. Louis may be in Flyover Country but we have Bissinger's Handcrafted Chocolate.

St. Louis may be in Flyover Country but we have Ted Drewes Frozen Custard.

St. Louis may be in Flyover Country but we have Lake Forest Pasrty.

St. Louis may be in Fyover Counrty but we have Gooey Butter Cake.

Despite the stories of its origin, Gooey Butter Cake was traditionally served Friday's luncheon dessert at the school I attended, which was founded in 1859.

Makes me think hard about the purchase of K3.

No, zombies are more like purchase of a consumer-grade Nikon/Canon product.

I concur with the Finn. So true!

Still not buying a K3.

Um, it may be the post of the other gentleman was taken as Postimpudent or something.

Carry on.

And avoid the hociR.
