  1. Collective Soul? You wouldn't have listened to Stryper.
  2. Their latest album 'Sonic Highways' was released two days ago.
  3. I grew up drinking crappy coffee. We didn't know any better. Then, European coffee ruined me. Now I'm forced to roast, grind and drip the coffee myself since I can't find any American coffee houses that do it correctly. I've also tried every coffee bean offered on the market; but, unfortunately, by the time they hit the shelves they are completely oxidized and are unusable. In a pinch, I'll drink anything. But I loves me some good coffee. The cup I'm sipping now has a mouth feel (viscosity) and chocolate undertones that can't be purchased in the U.S. I've become a total coffee snob. I love the smell of coffee. I have always hated the taste. Posting that you are a coffee snob after discussing the viscosity of coffee is redundant. Snob.
  4. I was just looking through the CGC Facebook page. Brittany is everywhere.
  5. The Foo Fighters are the sound of my late 90's. I have mixed feelings about Foo Fighters. I respect the band members, but I've never really been a big fan of their music. Grohl is a fantastic drummer, but when he came out from behind the kit...I don't know...writing, singing and guitar playing are not his strong points IMO. It's like I don't know who you are anymore. Are you a Foo fan? Sorry if I stepped on some toes.
  6. The only coffee I remember having that tasted chocolatey was an Indonesian blend. Yeah, it's rare. Turns out, it's the first casualty of oxidation. There's about a 5-7 day window after roasting before the beans lose their taste and develop off-flavors. And, evidently, vacuum sealing won't prevent it, since there is enough oxygen trapped within the bean to cause it. This is what drove me to roast my own beans. By the time beans make it to the shelves at the supermarket or coffee shop, they're already past their due date and taste nasty.

  9. The percolatin' gets things percolatin' For some reason, all this reminds me of that Two and a Half Men episode where Charlie's girlfriend swallows his engagement ring and she's forced to use coffee and a metal colander to 'recover' the ring in the bathroom.
  10. This has been really good. Tup - If you haven't seen this, I think you'd like it. I've only watched the first two episodes, but there's a ton of punk origin material in it. Good stuff.
  11. Coffee in the morning gets things moving. I can have a cup before bed too. It doesn't seem to bother me. But then I'm into the dark roasts which have less caffeine.
  12. Well...I finally replaced my hot air popper, so I'm back to roasting my own coffee beans. I almost forgot how good coffee can be.
  13. Spidey Super Stories? I don't know. I googled, but can't find it.
  14. That's actually very cute. We need more toddlers being introduced early on to the thrash/death/grindcore genres before their interest is captured by the likes of Taylor Swift and J-Pop. I wonder if they make leather wristbands that little.
  15. ‘Interstellar's’ Jonah Nolan Developing ‘Foundation’ Series for HBO I will definitely be watching this. I've often wondered why Asimov's robot detective novels have never been developed into a series or movie.
  16. Did Gargle McLickmestein steal a piece of the pie, or did he make the pie bigger?
  17. Was it a Yahoo email account? A year or two ago, my Yahoo account was infected with a virus that sent spam to everyone I had ever corresponded with, and all their names were visible in the distribution. That sucked.
  18. I left a reply telling them to stop, they don't know what they are doing. The reply was deleted. You'd think that it might have occurred to him at some point to contact someone who knew what they were doing.
  19. Is that the show starring all of us trying to make Pantry Raid Chicken?
