The Four Options For Coffee (BEST OF 2016)
Posted in BEST OF 2016
“Coffee – the finest organic suspension ever devised.
It’s got me through the worst of the last three years.
I beat the Borg with it”
Captain Kathryn Janeway
The Four Options Of Coffee
1) Good
2) OK
3) Drinkable
4) Yak
How to recognize bad coffee:
1) Looks like tea, doesn’t taste like tea and certainly not like any coffee you’ve ever tasted!
2) Sticky gooey stuff sticks on your tongue: Looks like tar, tastes like tar!
3) Your face twitches in a funny way: Not funny good, but funny bad.
4) Coffee with milk: Except when it’s ice coffee, with lots of coffee, a little ice and hardly any milk.
You know it’s an excellent cup when the coffee is:
1) Black.
2) The spoon melts in it before you manage to stir.
3) You have a burned after taste in your mouth for several hours after your last cup of the day.
4) It’s ten o’clock in the evening and you are still drinking it.
Note: Why you would actually stop drinking coffee at any hour is beyond me!
Coffee, by any other name (BEST OF 2016)
Posted in BEST OF 2016
“As long as there was coffee in the world, how bad could things be?”
― Cassandra Clare, City of Ashes
Coffee, by any other name
“What’s in a name?
That which we call, coffee,
By any other name,
Would smell as sweet;”
The sweetest of aroma,
From every cafe in Roma
Bringing you to your knees,
When on a walkabout, in Paris
A cup of Java
A cup of Joe
Darker than molten lava
Just let the liquid flow!
Because,
Coffee, by any other name…
Well, it’s all coffee,
Really,
And all coffee
Is good,
Just
Drink,
Enjoy,
And be merry
And sooner than later
Have another cup
Then some more,
Maybe one more,
For the road,
To get off the load,
Take away,
Now you’re talking,
Just keep on walking
Another cafe
Is bound to
Come along!
Coffee on a Tuesday… for Daily Photo
Posted in Daily Photo: Photography, Poetry and Humour
“Is this supposed to rhyme?”
Coffee on a Tuesday…
Coffee on a Tuesday
Coffee on a Wednesday
Coffee on a Thursday
Even some on a Friday…
A completely different story
On a Saturday
Coffee double shots
From full brewed pots
It may be a lot
But not for a Sunday
That is another day
When drinking coffee
Is allowed
Now on Monday…
Well, that is a whole new story!
Magic for the Daily Post (one)

“Nature is a petrified magic city.”
Novalis
Magic
When the working day is done
After all the hard work and sweating
What could be more fun
Than riding up to the sixteenth floor
Quickly opening the doors
Just in time for the setting sun
A view filled with magic
More beautiful than you imagined
There is no denying, you just scored

“Nature is a petrified magic city.”
Novalis
Magic
After a day of work and fun
It’s time to put your phasers on stun
Forget about the phone and the fax
Sit down, take a deep breath and relax
There is nothing more greater
Enjoy the magic of the nature

In this foreign land
Where I stand
Something magical
Quite radical
Sunshine
