It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Morning.  About to make the dreaded switch from the coffee shop brew I pick up on the way into work -over to- the Folgers crap I get at work.  You never really adjust to that moment let me tell you...

Whiskey Wednesday?  I can get with that.  Got some Woodford at home that's been calling since the weekend...

I've always had control of the coffee I am drinking . . . at work or home . . .

Oh and in a moment of "I should've seen this coming":  *ALL* the caffeine hit me at once.  I feel like I'm levitating.  It's uncomfortable.

I would, but I'm trying to manage 3 departments at a company where (apparently) we herd cats.

To throw some perspective at you...

Most would prefer to be levitating than to auger in.

can you see the noises yet?

I could!  But now, 60+ ounces of water later...  I've quit levitating.  Thank goodness.

To bright outside, but the clock on the club house wall says it's EverNing.

And...

It's Whiskey Wednesday! [shot]

That is where most of it ends up after it hits the fan.

About 6 months ago I sold an Old Dell Laptop running Linux Mint for $30 on Craigslist. The buyers were an older couple that just wanted to do some Word Processing. They seemed almost computer illiterate. The machine ran fine, but the battery was weak, so It needed to stay plugged in when you ran it.

So today I was working in the shop in a back room when this couple comes to the door. The Door is a glass Commercial store door which was locked and the key was in the office.  Joy has the conversation through the glass and I can hear it from the room I'm in. They wanted to know "What kind of condition the Lap Top was in when I sold it to them". Joy thought it was her son that had sold it to them and said he doesn't live here anymore. Which as far as they are concerned is basically true. He won't be back from San Francisco for several more months.

I'm thinking. "What kind of question is that?" I showed them everything. I could see they were angling for a refund after having it for 6 months. Maybe the battery went out. Maybe they couldn't figure out how to run it. Maybe the hard drive went out, who knows.

I just let her handle it.

I prepared myself an espresso with Deathwish the other day after I had a Mountain Dew Voltage . . . I saw sounds . . .
