Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

<makes plans to hoard coffee>

You probably don't want to announce that on a public forum, as that will lead the coffee-less zombies right to you.

OTOH, when the coffee apocalypse comes, we can all get tips on how to structure post-apocalyptic society from the Mad Max movies....

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

STARBUCKS!

Two men enter. One man leave.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

It's hard for me to get excited about fuel cells until it doesn't take a boatload of electricity to make hydrogen.

In terms of power, the answer is nukes. No CO2 emissions and the waste is small and contained. And, as a guy from a hazardous waste company once said in an interview, "I love nuclear waste. If you lose it, you can find it again."

If mankind had to start from scratch, I think it would have to live off the remains of this civilization, since we long ago mined the stuff that's easy to get to.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm tearing up about the books.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yes, it was our Victor on his LJ. I just assume he's always right about these things.

Hmm. Damned journalists and their facts.

I don't think it's so much a matter of his getting his facts wrong -- he just drinks so much more coffee than the normal (even Buffista!) mortal that the normal worldwide supply looks dangerously low.

Happy birthday, Cass!

Coffee shortage? Dear Universe, this is NOT OKAY.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Which reminds me, if Jess is around, Jess, where did you order your green coffee beans from? I need to start my stockpile now.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Jess, where did you order your green coffee beans from?

Not me! Never roasted my own beans.

Weird! I thought you had!

I will experiment, then, and report back!

(Green beans keep for a year. And are half the price. Even if I get a personal roaster instead of hacking a popcorn popper or breadmaker, it'll pay for itself.)
