Coffee
« on: Nov 19, 2018, 05:48 AM »
Who's got the coffee on. Sitting in on a 16 hour shift at work. Gonna be a long day of looking at new ice fishing tackle seeing what is new, and what I might have to replace from last season. Hope to have more ice than last year. Plenty of fish to catch....Tight lines.

I can only hope that water keeps getting more ice on top. Bagged a buck in archery so ice fishing is all I have to look forward to now.

Lets put it this way, I'm a glorified adult baby sitter that watches individuals that are not fit to live in normal society on their own accord for the time being.

Programmed start is nice but you haven't lived until you use black rifle coffee in a press.

Mine is programmed for 4 am. Most of the time I am up before it gets done. And I never use an alarm clock. Haven't used one for 20 years.

Of all the things in the world that are wrong cold coffee and/or warm beer are in the top ten... As far as your other observation: TMI.  :sick:  ;)

For me, my coffee has to be hot. I can drink hot or cold tea, but coffee has to be hot. After many, many years of different brewers we have settled on the Keurig. Makes a great cup of fresh coffee every time. Too many years of drinking day old coffee that has set so long it would take the glaze off a billiard ball.
Tried ice fishing with Dynamite, UGH... where's my shanty?

It sounds like you work for either the IRS or the Department of Corrections. You may need more than coffee.
We're born, we live for a while, and then we die.  Sounds like a good reason to go ice fishing.

I guess I’ve become one of those that only drinks hot coffee in the morning or out on the ice, otherwise it’s iced coffee during the day.

Stick,
I feel your pain brother! 30+ years State and County. After that many years, I can drink just about anything, but prefer my fresh ground Sun Roasted. Got to be hot!

I've been drinking coffee since I was a kid in MN. In the Navy we ran on coffee. Sometimes it sat in the pot so long, we used it for paint remover!! After my heart attack and open heart surgery, my surgeon said I should give up caffeinated coffee and switch to decaf. I told him that wasn't going to happen, so he suggested  Folgers 1/2 Caff and it's a compromise I can live with! Full strength coffee gives me a buzz anymore!!! ;)2
My two favorite college football teams are Ohio State and whoever's playing Michigan!!!

I'm to the point that I need caffeine to stop the shakes. I'm only normal when I have my caffeine, no matter where it comes from.

When I was 5 years old my Aunt started me on coffee. She always drank hers with lots of sugar and plenty of cream. Eventually I did away with the sugar and cream and went to a bigger cup. The Dr. tells me two cups a day is good for you. I told him I never have more than 2 cups, just didn't tell him my cup is 34oz.

I've been in the hospital and started getting bad headaches. They gave me pills that didn't do any good. I told them to give me a cup of caffeinated coffee, not the decaff crap, and they brought me some from the nurse's station!!! Headache disappeared!!! ;)
