I must be the only one in here...*echo-echo-echo*

[Covenantor]

Was conducting quantum physics experiment.... now I have to start all over. Where’s that darn cat?

;>)

need more coffee

[Gefn]

No she wanted to give me a Keurig. I wanted a coffee maker like Mr. Coffee. It’s actually cheaper for me.

[Monkey Face]

Wow. There are only four places in the Valley that have them and I can’t afford any of them. Even the air is too expensive for me to breathe!

But it looks like a good thing to have. I will look for them.

[Monkey Face]

So what did you get?? Or are you still doing instant coffee?

Still, coffee is coffee, and it’s good for us! Like chocolate! YAY!

[Gefn]

Drinking instant. Supposedly it will be delivered on Saturday when the whole family gets together for dinner.

Instant isn’t so bad really.

I like Maru in boxes more than Schrodinger’s cat.

As near as I can see from their graphic, it seems like a percolator with a motorized spray.

The classic Italian espresso machines are impressive looking with all the froo-froo but the basic function is pretty simple. So many ways to brew good coffee to personal taste.

This machine is the Idi Amin of coffee makers in full dress uniform, big fat and shiny, capable of spouting steam and foaming at the mouth. Love that gold imperial eagle.

The more things change...

[ArGee]

Gotcha???!!!

[null and void]

the sky was particularly spectacular. But it was also chilly out there..

[Gefn]

You got me I thought it was some type of steam punk machine.

It’s purty.

[Gefn]

Morning ArGee.

[Gefn]

There’s got to be a Red Dwarf joke in there. I’ll think of it.

More coffee please.

Cats on a hamster wheel?

Mean! And funny.

Funnier with a frickin' laser...

Clever concept.

LISTER: Can you give me a bacon sandwich with French mustard and black coffee?

The dispenser hums and produces a pair of gumboots.

LISTER: Your vocabulary unit's not working either.
DISPENSING MACHINE: Yeth, I know. Thith altho hath been reported to the Thkutterth. Thorry for the inconvenienthe.
LISTER: Can you just try and give me a black coffee?
DISPENSING MACHINE: I'll thertainly try. (Produces a bucket.)
LISTER: That's a bucket.
DISPENSING MACHINE: Thorry.

[Gefn]

I love Lister.

When I’m blue I think to myself it’s not that bad, I could have been born as AJ Rimmer.

That thought has gotten me through many existential 3 am dark nights of the soul.

It’s one of my all time favorite tv shows in the universe,

Been to the gym, then took a shower.

Blond update: This morning Bill said, “Are you planning to go to the store today?”
“No,” I said, “not especially. Why?”
“I was thinking you could get me a cough suppressant.”
“I’m doing other things this morning, but you have a car sitting there in the driveway. Nothing is stopping you from driving to a drugstore and buying whatever you need.”
*stuned look*
“Oh, well, maybe ...”

Why is such a simple thing ,as supplying elastictrickery ,made such hard work of....?
You could always take your charge and store it yourself, then vanish off grid (My lights are off grid).
Or wouldn't that be tolerated?
