On another note, if I could feel the effects of having boundless energy for one hour with very bad side effects for 3 days, it would be worth it as I’d probably run about 20 miles that one day.

O.D.ing on espresso...a noble goal. I heard once that the darker the roast, the less caffeine. If that’s true, several shots of espresso should be lower in caffeine than, say, three cups of coffee. Or, possibly, I have no friggin’ idea what I’m talking about.

My brother-in-law used to make a really strong pot of coffee, pour himself a cup and then add three teaspoons of instant to the cup and drink cup after cup that way.

My friends and I used to dissolve caffeine tablets in water and then make coffee with it. Percolated, for the additional boost.

And if you REALLY want to give it some kick, in a 12 oz cup disolve 1/4 of a disc of Mexican Chocolate in it with 1/4 cup of creamer!

WOW!

This is how dogs die when they eat chocolate...same results — caffeine overload.

Mean Mean Caffeine,
First you’ll feel keen,
Then later just mean,
‘Cause you drank too much,
Mean Mean Caffeine.
