    I'm sorry, I don't understand this thread at all.

    I don't understand "Too much Coffee".

    How can there possibly be too much Coffee?

    And I beg to differ, but the picture on my coffee mug is not of my coffee mug. It is of the Chemical diagram for Caffeine.

    In my world the only Capital Offense is throwing out a perfectly good cup of Coffee. Just scrape the scum off the top and it's drinkable.

    And I know, they are everywhere, but I'm sorry, Starbucks is not Coffee.

    I used to have a cup like that Steve, it has disappeared; not an accusation, I just wonder where you got yours. When I was decaffeinated(the horror) I joked that the cup was as much caffeine as I needed(it WAS true). I once had a stagehand say he couldn't understand how I drank decaf; then he thought for a moment and said that me on caffeine scared him a little.

    A story about The Wizard ....

    He was a warrant officer in the US Army ... I was a captain. While in the area, I stopped by his hangar. He was out on the flight line, so a corporal asked if I would like a coffee. I said yes, but then he realized he only had the cup that belonged to CW2 Ashton available for me to use. I looked at it, grimaced at the "patina" on the inside of the cup, picked it up and went to the sink to wash it, before filling it with coffee. The corporal was aghast and, in a shaky voice, said "no one washes CW2 Ashton's cup ... he likes it that way."

    Unbelievable as it may sound, I am still alive to tell this story. I still ruin the patina in his cups. I like to live dangerously!

    I agree, there is no such thing as too much coffee!

    His fingers permanently formed to hold a coffee cup?.... that is when he has drank too much coffee... when Folgers sends you Christmas cards... when you have Juan Valdez' phone number on speed dial... when you can taste the difference between leeward and windward side coffee beans..
