Hello? Echo?

[Chickenboy]

Chickenboy: How was your day today, Chickenboy?
Chickenboy: Fine, thank you for asking. Yours?
Chickenboy: Great, just great.

[Chickenboy]

Maybe pull off a Faber?

[Chickenboy]

I mean, if the cat's away and all...

[Chickenboy]

Might as well have a bit of play, eh?

[Chickenboy]

I wonder what's on the telly?

[Chickenboy]

I've got Elizabeth Hurley on the brain....

[Chickenboy]

Haven't been able to 'shake' her since seeing that movie with her as the Devil a number of years ago.

[Chickenboy]

What do the Brits think of her, I wonder?

[Chickenboy]

I'd seriously have to give some thought to signing whatever she's putting in front of me.

[Chickenboy]

Who do you guys like for the playoffs this weekend?

[Chickenboy]

Oh, lookie, a new page!

Well, I was when I was spamm....er...contributing in a meaningful fashion to this forum.

So, technically I've got to do a WHOLE page top to bottom to be a true Faber? Is that the etiquette (or lack thereof)?

[BrucePowers]

That is the etiquette and no it will not happen on this page[:D]

Bad storm here. Had to get off computer while electricity supply was fluctuating.

not my idea.....cutbacks.

They are cutting out coffee where you work ? Isn't that against the law ? If I were an upper level manager i would come out of my own pocket to at least pay for part of providing coffee. Geez.

I've always wondered why businesses scrimp on the amount of coffee for employees. I mean it's such a cheap way to keep them happy, productive, alert and active, why wouldn't you do it?

It's like scrimping on lunch room niceties. Then the employees go out to lunch and take a LONG lunch or spend their time commuting to a fast food joint instead of working constructively.

Anything to regularly drive employees away from their work is a bad thing. It takes a manager with a bit of sense to know that they can be penny wise and pound foolish.

Agreed

My wife is the same way. She's tried many different types and always comes back to Starbucks French Roast. Apparently that is the ultimate cyanide-laced motor oil available. [:'(]

I'm also a fan of the dark, dark roasts, but I like a very wide variety of types. As long as it's not "unleaded." [:D]

i'd really like to know (to taste and to test) what you call coffee, because 20 years ago when i went in california, what you american guys call "strong coffee", or "french coffee" or "Italian roast coffee", was really light comparing to the european taste.
Not to offend, but just curious, in order to compare the different taste of different culture.

Well it is clearly impossible to talk about all of the coffee served daily in the entire United States as if it is all the same everywhere [:)]

In my little 'ole city you can find coffee served any which way you want. And like most of us there are small roasters that will do anything you want them to do.
