Ah coffee ... still good for you

    My company no longer offers coffee, yay! Costs too much they say. Losing money they say. Bring my own now.

    Ah coffee ... nectar of the Gods. BTW Ryan, after that Waffle House thread last week, we stopped by an IHOP and had breakfast the other day. It puts WH to shame!

    I enjoy both places for the food. Maybe I enjoy WH a little more because it's not exactly your typical sit-down restaurant. I suppose I like the redneck aspect of it since I grew up in the country. Who knows. I also like watching people cook the food.

    Coffee? I'll take IHOP over WH every time.

    I can stand 7-Eleven coffee every now and then. Sheetz ain't bad, either.

    That's what I was thinking. That can't be good for you.

    On an average day, I'll go through two pots. Extra-long or busy days, 3 pots.

    Well, that's good news. You could set your clock by my coffee intake. A cup or two in the morning before work, then one at 10 a.m., then another at around 2 p.m. Occasionally another at 4 or 5 if I've got a reason to be up and at 'em in the evening. Soda just doesn't do it for me, as far as a caffeine jolt goes, and stuff like Red Bull gives me a head ache. I've finally trained myself to drink coffee black, which seems to give you a stronger kick (and I suspect it's helped me lose a few pounds).

    My first minimum wage slave job was at a coffee shop. The employees could swill as much as they wanted for free. I wasn't a big coffee drinker prior to that, but I left an addict. :) Fun times, those. The smell of that place alone made it a joy to work in.

    IHOP has solid coffee. That's about the only thing it's got going for it over Denny's.

    Lots of shit ain't good for me.
    It was two because I got up later than usual. I'm most always up by 6, today I slept in until about 7:30.
    Up at the normal time and it would have been three.
    I've switched to Coke Zero for the afternoon. Probably not good for me either.

    When I lived out West, I loved me some Circle K coffee. Have to go down to the greater High Point area to find a Circle K in these parts.

    Sheetz is pretty good, though.

    That last bit knocking French-press/unfiltered coffee is bogus, man.

    That's exactly how I feel. There are a lot of vices I could have, so if caffeine is the worst thing I do, then so be it.
