I dont drink it except when its really cold out side. It took 15 years of growing up to comprehend why my grandaddy used to always snicker when he would order his coffee. "Hot black and wet, just like my wemmin!" LOL ..... funny line

A shotgun and a hair brush. Both can prove to be quite lethal when put in skilled hands... Many a man better than I have fallen to each...

Puzzy and money, money and puzzy. Both will bring you down before you even have an opportunity to give up.

I know Theresa. We have a family reunion in Govenour every year. My parents were born and raised in Oswegatchie. To this day, I'm trying to get my grandfather's 160 acre farm in Oswegatchie back in the family name. I must be a glutton for punishment though as I detest the black flies and mosquito's up in St. Lawrence County.  Real good fishing on Flatbottom Lake and the Black River, though. I'm going through my rolladex of colleges in that area. Gennesseo? RWC in N.Chili. My roommates sister went to Elim, if that's the one you were mentioning. I moved from Adams Center 30 years ago. I don't remember Bob's. Is that the old Colonial Inn establishment? Bob's bakery , now closed: http://www.newzjunky.com/news/0228bobs_bakery.htm My dad used to take me there for donuts-aka "cakes". He worked out of Ft. Drum. I believe that gun shop is one and the same, PS.
Man, you guys are taking me back to my youth! I really want to show my wife and sons that part of my past. To this day, the best sunrise I ever saw was sitting on the edge of one of the Finger Lakes... My memories are mostly bawdy ones involving camping,drinking and catching panfish everywhere from Lakeside State Park, around to Selkirk Shores and up to Clayton on the River. I still visit my college friends up in Rochester. I visit Watertown less often since my parents escaped to live down here in VA.

Is that gunshop off of Morris St(?) in bath, parallel to Rte 17? I bought a Mossberg stock there once. My mom's family is north of Watertown near Theresa. Spent a lot of time there. My wife is from west of Rochester in dairy country. I went to college SW of Rochester and still visit inlaws and the Brockport Tim Hortons up there on occasion. For anyone from the Adams Center area- Bob's "cakes" and coffee...  Nobody's from Theresa, next thing we know you'll be telling us you go to Gouverneur by way of Oxbow!!!

You're the first person that I've come across that's familiar with Elim. Yep! That's my old school! Bob's bakery. The donut shop! Oh YEAH! First donuts I ever had! All the rest have been down hill from there! Sad to see it closing down. There used to be a bee keeper in town that had the bee's all up in his shop crawling over everything. He'd hold them and pet them and went a long ways to limiting my fear of the insects. It sounds like you've had some good times back in the day.

Wife and I have a coffee maker with a built-in burr grinder, set the timer and listen to that grinder go off when you're just waking up... even the cheapest beans fresh-ground, are better than the best stuff pre-ground. Once coffee's ground you want to get the water to it...right now!

By the way, we are also both in agreement: good coffee needs nothing but a cup.

My favorite travel coffee mug is from Sheetz (a gas station, MTO, convenience store in Western PA) that says "Sheetz Happens".
My favorite mug for home use is one the fiance picked me up when she lived in Denver. It's a large mug and it has pictures of the Rockies and an Elk on it.
I have a mug in my apartment that my Nana used to ALWAYS use when she was at our house. It doesn't get used any longer as it is old and I worry about breaking it. That lady could drink gallons of coffee, and it HAD to be out of the same mug. She'd even make me wash it if it were dirty when she got there. It was smaller and lighter, and she just loved that old thing.
I'd rather have a bad day hunting than a good day working!

I just gave up the French Press & went back to drip, when I found out about Cafestol. Apparently, it raises LDL (bad) cholesterol. , and since my Dr. has started nagging about that, the French Press went back in the cabinet. FC Schitt..........I appreciate the info, but schitt.........

Man, all this talk about Folgers is like a bunch of guys talking about their Remington 770s. TFF!

Not in California. I first experienced Tim Hortons when Greenhornet (dad) and I were driving back from Alaska through Canada. I was pleasantly surprised to find one in Huber Heights, OH when I was stationed out there. Two 24 oz coffee's on the way to work and I'd be set for the day. Last time I flew home, Dad took me to the casino up at Gun Lake, Mi as they had a Tim Horton's inside.
Slowly they are creeping into Southwest Michigan, they just opened a store in Kalamazoo/Portage area. The bag I bought when I was home in June is starting to run low so it's time to take another trip to Michigan. Since I only have the one bag, I savor it for the weekends when I actually have time to enjoy it.

Usually throw whatevers in the pantry into the old perculator.Prefer it black except on special occasions (duck blind)and I'll splash in some bourban.
