Originally, ...Reminds me of things like Coca Cola. Originally, it tasted like total crap, but was marketed originally as a hangover cure, containing coca and caffeine. When a newbie pharmacy employee accidentally used carbonated water instead of plain water to make it, it turned out to be really tasty, and the recipe was bought by a big city pharmaceutical company for about $24. The original inventor died broke, while the product was listed in the Sears catalog as a cure for everything from arthritis to impotence.

Makes you think.<br />The coffee filter collapsed in the maker this morning and dumped the grounds into the coffee. Slightly tough chewing. Reminded me of way back when I used to use Army coffee as a "dip" instead of tobacco. Still don't "dip" tobacco, ugh! But coffee is OK. Caffeine Rush! <br />HOAs are bad for your health!

By the way, we've had significant rain out here and I believe it's just so you can see lots of green and bloom upon your arrival. It is currently sunny and 55 degrees and we plan a dip in the nearby 75 degree spring fed pool later today.<br /><br />JoJo, I think for a while I received a daily love note from those fine folks at my HOA before I left the city.

Unbelievably isn't it.<br />I get to go home for a few hours today so I can get more of my stuff and water the plants. Maybe bring a few back here to get more of a home fell for me. Need to spray the weeds don't want to hear from the HOA. <br />So lets sit on the patio and have some coffee before I have to run off.<br />JoJoJoJonoreply@blogger.com
