Does anyone recall pal'ing around unprincipled with the principal and a headache over "whom", (with maybe some chocolate thrown in)?

***cmc*** · 08-21-2007, 08:43 AM

Who would like to initiate a new topic?

cinderellawkids · 08-21-2007, 09:27 AM

What topic should we start with?

***indigo*** · 08-22-2007, 02:38 AM

Shall we leave food out this time around?

GreenTea · 08-22-2007, 05:41 AM

Do you think its possible for us not to get around to the subject of food?

Are we already discussing it?

Japic05 · 08-22-2007, 10:02 AM

Do you like reheated coffee? Most don't, say it doesn't taste as good - so why can you reheat most foods & it's ok but not coffee?

daydream · 08-22-2007, 11:28 PM

Would someone empty out my fridge and tie me up for a few weeks?

***indigo*** · 08-23-2007, 02:06 AM

Does it taste better because the flavour has come out more overnight?

Japic05 · 08-23-2007, 01:42 PM

Or is it because you didn't have to stand over the stove, slaving to cook it for hours, basically to tired to enjoy it, the next day you can just reheat and serve?

cinderellawkids · 08-23-2007, 02:08 PM

Does reheated coffee really taste differently?

***cmc*** · 08-23-2007, 03:43 PM

Doesn't reheated coffee taste bitter?

GreenTea · 08-23-2007, 07:57 PM

Why bother reheating it? (Make another pot -- its coffee!)

***cmc*** · 08-23-2007, 08:10 PM

Isn't the smell of fresh coffee brewing wonderful?

GreenTea · 08-23-2007, 08:12 PM

Is "wake up and smell the coffee" merely some trite cliche?

***cmc*** · 08-23-2007, 08:17 PM

Do you think it means to 'snap out of it' because how could that phrase make any literal sense?

***indigo*** · 08-24-2007, 01:48 AM

Could it mean to pull off your rose tinted glasses?.

GreenTea · 08-24-2007, 08:17 AM

How do the glasses affect your sense of smell? Are they rose tinted or rose scented?

Japic05 · 08-24-2007, 10:49 AM

Always thought the old country song "Rose colored glasses" had double meaning - "glasses" that he looked thru or could be glasses that people drank from to "help me hold on to the good times & the good life" whatcha think? anybody else ever hear it that way?

***indigo*** · 08-25-2007, 01:06 AM

I don't know it does anyone else?

GreenTea · 08-26-2007, 10:06 AM

So, the coffee clears away the effects of the glasses AND helps you hear better in addition to smelling wonderful -- am I tracking?

GreenTea · 08-26-2007, 10:07 AM

But it doesn't work if you reheat it in the nuker, right?

GreenTea · 08-26-2007, 10:08 AM

...So you have to be awake in order to make the fresh pot, correct?

GreenTea · 08-26-2007, 10:10 AM

So instead of saying "Wake up and smell the coffee", shouldn't the expression be "Wake up, look around, listen closely and make some fresh coffee to smell"?
