Coffee is not essential for life

[DKCDKC]

I was a journalist for a decade and we lived off coffee, and very little sleep. I've never shucked the habit - and now don't want to. I have a mug of regular in the morning and another with lunch. When I go to town I love to hit one of our small town's 7 coffee shops and nurse a cappuccino for 30 minutes. I don't drink much else but good old well water, the occasional ice cold Coke Zero on a hot day, and maybe a hot chocolate on a very cold day.

I can't handle carbonated stuff at all with the exception of some of the very lightly carbonated flavored waters. Add the heavily sugared aspect to sodas and they're a total no-go. I think I've had one can in 10 years and that's only after mowing a neighbor's yard on a hot day when they didn't have anything else readily available.

I do sweetened, flavored iced coffees in Summer, but with extra ice to cut down the sweet. I can't drink it black at all, hot or cold. Has to have some kind of cream, creamer or milk in it.

I have heard that the monkey processed coffee is the best coffee in the world buy many people. I guess it's a morbid cueiousity.:confused3::drink:

What? Don't the Swiss know that Coffee is a food group.

You just keep thinking that - "Coffee is not essential.....". More for me.

If there's a shortage and they run out, there're are going to be an awful lot of cranky people with headaches.

A man needs a vice or two. Since I quit Skoal and Copenhagen...all that is left is coffee. I could do worse.

Coffee is my last vice. When I met my future wife she didn't smoke so I quit, when I was diagnosed with diabetes in my fifties, I pretty much stopped drinking alcoholic beverages (I still have an occasional beer 1-2 a week during the summer). If I smoked pot I was not very good at my job and I found I liked to be able to think clearly so I don't do that much anymore.
But coffee? Don't get between me and my coffee! :hissyfit::hissyfit:

Many years ago someone on TBN posted that they eat burnt toast and coffee every morning, just like his Father did.
