After her morning coffee, woman finds bat in filter

ASSOCIATED PRESS • September 29, 2008

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa -- It wasn't just the caffeine that gave an Iowa woman an extra jolt after she had her morning coffee. It was also the bat she found in the filter.

The Iowa Department of Public Health says the woman reported a bat in her house but wasn't too worried about it. She turned on her automatic coffee maker before bedtime and drank her coffee the next morning.

She discovered the bat in the filter when she went to clean it that night. The woman has undergone treatment for possible rabies.

Health officials say that the bat was sent to a lab but that its brain was too cooked by the hot water to determine whether it had rabies.

Ironically, it still tasted better than Starbucks.

"We've secretly replaced her freshly ground coffee with mountain grown Dead Bat Crystals."

Hmmm, this bat tastes like Christian Bale.

my favorite line was the last one -- couldn't do tests because the brain was too cooked...

I didn't do it.

I like my coffee like I like my women: blonde, sweet and batty.

Well damn, I got the Val Kilmer flavor. So not fair.

The mere thought of Kilmer's golden lotus has me sliding off my chair.

I can't be the only one who logs on just to see what Granny has to say.

Eyes going? I said I blame Batman.

This is what happens in a modern home without a belfry. The bats head straight for the coffeemaker.
