Lol! I love a dark roast coffee, so I use Folgers Black Silk. It tastes great to me!At the risk of scorn from the 'caffeinated connoisseurs', we use...
... with half the caffeine.

It's called "The insider" and is based on a very true story..
Jeffrey Wigand : The Insider
It's a very good movie, you would like it..
Her name in Real Life was Debbie .. she was kind to me, as so many others have been here .. we exchanged emails periodically .. she was a good Woman, proud of her Family .. proud of her work .. strong, independent .. her ECF Handle, my4jewels, represented her Family ..
Although she chose to not share her Journey as it began to approach the End, It is my Hope that her memory will live on with most of us .. I am hoping to be able to gather enough material for a Tribute video .. until then, I will leave you with an exchange we had almost exactly One Year Ago near Labor Day ..
I wrote to her : "I hope all is going as well as can be expected for you .. as Summer begins to draw to a close and another year will approach it's end, it seems time continues to accelerate .. there should be some mathematical theory that deals with "The Older You Get, the Faster Father Time Moves" ... remember when you were a child and things moved so much slower .. ?? Maybe it's just me ..
I thought about you this morning when my mind began to drift into sadness and thinking of your journey and attitude helped put things into a better perspective .. for what ever that's worth .."
Debbie wrote back :
"It's not just you. Time does seem to move faster as we get older, at least I think so. Funny that I should inspire you. Last night, my thoughts were also of summer coming to a close, and I found myself having a total meltdown, wondering if this was my last summer. If I allow myself to entertain those thoughts for more than a nanosecond, they take me over. My eyes are still puffy from crying. I gave myself 20 minutes to have a pity party, and then said, "That's it"! Today I am much better emotionally. Yep, it's all about perspective."
I am filled with sadness, knowing we have lost another Good One .. yet, at the same time, I feel Debbie would not want sadness, she would, instead, prefer we celebrate a Life Well Lived .. I used to kid her that she was the "Worlds Biggest Toby Keith Fan" .. so it only seems appropriate to put up this tune .. and I won't post a sad tune .. so Debbie, raise that margarita glass, a little salt on the rim, on the rocks, please ..

Around here, GW is the only charity that accepts mosts of my castoffs without giving me the third degree as to what I'm donating and what they will not take.
Their was a time when any charity was glad to get any donations.
As to non profit ????? I know what you mean. Profit is in everyones face these days.
No scorn from here. However I ONLY drink coffee FOR the caffeine.At the risk of scorn from the 'caffeinated connoisseurs', we use...
... with half the caffeine.
with lots of sugar for the bitter gene thing.
Her son, who she was immensely proud of, and his Bluegrass band .. they called themselves "Pudd'nhead" .. I believe as a nod toward Mark Twain ..
I need to chuckle. . .
A little old lady is walking around in a supermarket calling out, Crisco,
Crissssssscoooo!'
Soon an assistant manager approaches and says, 'Mam, the Crisco is in aisle
3.'
The woman replies, 'Oh, I'm not looking for the cooking stuff. I'm calling
my husband. He's in here somewhere'
The clerk is astonished.
'Your husband's name is Crisco?'
The woman answers, 'Oh no, no, no. I only call him that when we're out in
public'
'I see,' said the clerk.
'What do you call him at home?'
"Lard ayuss"
Sorry,
I had to. . .

Sorry,
This one, as you saw from the demonstration is COMPLETELY useless!What the heck is that thing? Useless machine appears to be an apt description. More info please. Always interested in useless machines. Got a whole garage full off em. Lawnmower, weedwacker, rake, wheelbarrow, etc.
I have my three mechs, and six Orchids. When three orchids are empty, usually in evening or morning, I check Ω and refill, at 5 ml each.That's why I like the I30. Unscrew top. Fill. Replace top. Continue vaping.(Don't blink, you'll miss it)
Today, with washing and seeding tomatoes all morning, my ml usage will be down. Chef said to refrain from vaping when a lot of work was about me, out of fear someone might detect an off flavor. I was NOT blowing clouds, but complied.
Hello Don, Thank you for letting us know about Jewel. I know how hard it was for you as I had to do the same thing about 3 years ago when I lost my wife to her cancer. I am sitting here with tears rolling down my face just thinking of the pain you are feeling. The pain does not go away we just learn to live with it. My prayers are for you and your family. I'm sorry I didn't know Jewel, however, I have no doubt she touched many lives and will be missed. Drop me a message if I can ever help in any way.

I watched a few of the other videos after the original played. I would love to find the plans for some of them and try to duplicate them. I'm easily amused.
I made decaf in our drip coffee maker and you couldn't tell the difference. Decaf shouldn't mean weak coffee. If you want to cut out the caffeine though it's not a good idea to go cold turkey. A lot of people get awful headaches. You gotta just start substituting some of the regular with decaf and work your way to it. When we cut back I'd get a 2 lb can of regular and a 2 lb can of decaf and mix them. Now we just drink decaf. I read somewhere that the darker the roast the less caffeine it has in it. I have no idea if that's true though. I tend to like dark roasts better anyway.
