Coffee Talk

[wiseasaserpentgentleasadove]

I have an idea...this is still bunny trail material, but let's start by posting your most bizarre coffee order you've ever placed, or have heard someone else place in front of you..
I tease my brother-in-law b/c he goes to starbucks and orders a grande, decaf, fat free sugar free, vanilla latte! I'm like "Your'e ordering flavored water!"

Here's a funny one off of Toby Mac's Momentum CD..I would like a triple skinny, 2/3rds decaf, half chocolate, no whip GRANDE mocha, and oh yea, extra foam, TO GO!

[matt_hatter]

I was in Nashville for a Bowl game with the fam and friends a few years back. It was cold for us thin blooded Aubies bundled up like eskimos, but the Badger Nation from WisKahnsun was in Tee shirts.
We found a little coffee haunt, bought the boys some hot chocolate and after reading the selection, (and scratching my head) I asked the bohemian beauty which one of these was like Maxwell House.

Boy what a look. "Well, if you mean a straight American tasting coffee, it would be this one. Told her to fill me up and don't forget the CoffeeMate. (By that time, I knew what buttons to push) Allie is giving me the evil eye, thinking that she is some classy coffee house chick...so I ask her what she wants. "Uhh..same as you...black."

Matt

[wiseasaserpentgentleasadove]

AHHH, black. So your'e a pretty simple guy when it comes to coffee. Have you splurged on a Starbuck's frozen frappacino? mmmmmmmm

The New Orleans Saints will be opening up their home season on Monday Night Football night. The whole nation gets to see them in action post katrina, and how the superdome turned out after all of the damage was cleaned up and renovated. I hope to get tickets to that game. It will be pretty exciting!! (just like on the bunny trail, coffee talk can be about ANYTHING we wish!!)
How can I change my username here? I'd like to shorten it. Originally, it was going to be <u>wiseasserpentsgentleasdove</u> but, that didn't seem to be too appropriate. Hence, I removed one of the "s", added an "a" but I am getting tired typing that whole loooong thing in! Any suggestions? I'd simply like to be gentleasadove. much shorter.

[john_r_jones]

Wiseassdove?
John

[matt_hatter]

LOL John. We are going to call you dove. Like my coffee, I like things simple.
Matt

[john_r_jones]

I'd thought of "Gentileserpent" but I think that's already taken by um uh you know.

Back to my original question...how do i change it? Do I delete my account and start over? I'm already banned b/c AOL is my provider (Jesus is my provider, so we're not confused here!) and if i delete my account, they may not give me another one. I might be doomed to have to continue typing the looooong name! I am posting through anonymouse.

[j2theperson]

I have never placed a bizarre coffee order...mostly because I have never placed any coffee order. I have never drunk coffee ever--not a single cup in my entire life. I guess that is bizarre.

[j2theperson]

Dove, I've been looking into things and it doesn't appear that you can change your name. The only thing you could do would be to register a completely new name.

If that's a problem for you, the only thing I could think of would be for you to get someone here to register a new name for you (you could change the password after they've done so). Hope that helps.

[wiseasaserpentgentleasadove]

Hi, J2! Thanks for the advice! That seems like it would work. (get someone here to register a new name for you (you could change the password after they've done so). Hope that helps.)

Welcome to coffee talk! Wow!! I find it very hard to believe you have never had a cup of coffee EVER!!! I've never tried any drugs, except regular cigarets (sp?) But that isn't the same!! Are you mormon? (hee hee hee) I know that they don't do coffee, tea, or alcohol.

[j2theperson]

Hah hah. No, I'm not Mormon, just hopelessly clean living. http://www.factnet.org/discus/clipart/wink.gif The worst I've ever imbibed is Dr Pepper and the occassional strawberry wine cooler. You would think that, possessing, as I do, a personality that is naturally not particularly drawn to the vices that make Christians shudder (smoking, drinking, drugs, and [horror!] licentiousness) I would have been more accepted by my Christian teachers and leaders, but that was not the case. I think it was my love of fantasy and science fiction that did me in. George Lucas made me a Christian outcast!

[dust]

Is anyone hearing about problems registering. Cinderella has NOT gotten approved! Help...

[mdillon]

dust it took a few days before my registration came through. might have been because they knew I hung out with shady characters like mattie and miltie. but cinderella no problem.

md

[miltietoast]

ok I don't know if this is a verb or a noun but my username and password is saved so when I type m as in miltietoast it pops up I click and somebunny i n the computer inserts username and password. Only problem is I do'nt know how I did it

[wildwood_]

Had a problem with user input...(as in turn on lights when typing in password &amp; write it down somewhere and do not change it ever...) Ghost in machine seemed upset. Notice my new accessory...the low dash_ ? However, still haven't received the confirmation, activation...I took the instructions at their word, which said under FAQ if no activation rec'd to just try logging in...that the board is "buggy".

[wiseasaserpentgentleasadove]

trying to post without using anonymouse.org...see what happens...
think i might have figured out how to save my name,etc. went to profile edit, and went from there. Nope, when will AOL users be able to post here again!! If I'm Posting anonymously, my username isn't automatically saved with my password, but if i try to post through AOL, it IS automatically on there, and all I would have to do is hit preview/post message. This is frustrating! I REALLY need a frapaccino!

[ulyankee]

dust, has Cinderella tried this (http://www.factnet.org/FAQ_Discussion_Board.htm#I_never_received_an_activ ation_email_after_I_created_an_account._What_do_I_ do_now)?

[wiseasaserpentgentleasadove]

Ulyankee, how do you do that? (this) oh, forget it! Bill tried to explain it to me, how to post a one word link to someplace, and i don't get it.

[jesusisawesome]

J2t: I have never placed a bizarre coffee order...mostly because I have never placed any coffee order. I have never drunk coffee ever--not a single cup in my entire life.

JIA: Wow, wish I could claim the same . . . then my adrenals probably wouldn't be so shot! I'm a recovering coffeeholic. I loooovvvveee lattes!

[jesusisawesome]

John: Wiseassdove?

JIA: Dove, more like Wiseassbunny don't you think?! http://www.factnet.org/discus/clipart/biggrin.gif

This website (http://www.webmonkey.com/webmonkey/teachingtool/links.html) might help you understand better. I don't think anyone could explain it any more basically than they have.

[wiseasaserpentgentleasadove]

j2-WOW! Finally someone who can point me in the right direction! thanks a ton! after a hop to the bunny trail, i'm off to "webmonkey 101!"

[matt_hatter]

Palmolive!! Knew it was a dishwashing liquid, but couldn't remember the brand. You're gonna need something to soak in, because you sure got a load of TAR on you right now!!!HAHAHAHA

84: Okay Ricky, from my Blog and I used to start a big kettle of boiling water on the stove at the MCM house and then we would dump half a bottle of store brand instant coffee in the thing and keep it boiling all night, adding more water and instant coffee as needed when we ladled it out.

[john_r_jones]

Sonds like fun! In Norman we kept a huge pot of pinto beans going because we were b-r-o-k-e, and lived off of that until someone got paid and we headed to El Chico and had corn tortillias, nacho chips, and refried beans. As time progressed we somehow were able to go to either Legends, or the Interurban in Norman. When my TV sation gig kicked in we ate high off the hog in OKC. There's nothing like staff house living...thankfully.

JIA: When I was in high school, I was walking down the hallway at home and overheard a conversation from my niece and her little friend (who were both 4 years old at the time). "This don't taste that good, does it?!" "No, it don't!" I stepped into the bathroom to investigate, and they were in the process of brushing their teeth with NARE! For those that might not know Nare dissolves hair when shaving . . . I about freaked out, and had them over the sink in seconds, washing out their mouths . . . luckily I caught them right at the start. Afterwards, my niece would bring any and all tubes to adults before brushing to make sure it was toothpaste . . . LOL!

[john_r_jones]

You should see what happens when they brush with Preparation H.

BTW, Matt- (trying to stay on topic)

My friend and i once (and still do) had an idea for a TALK show, we were going to call it "coffee talk" and it was sorta going to be a spoof of Martha Stewart-our "theme" was going to be like...To make a good pot of red beans, you can do what Martha does, but "WHOSE GOT TIME?" So you take a few cans of blue runner, dice up some sausage, and viola...dinner! So "Coffee talk" is any topic you want to talk about while indulging in a cup of coffee, or NOT!

[john_r_jones]

Be instant in season and out...even when you feel perked!
John

[speakword2004]

John, on what grounds?

[matt_hatter]

Wiseassdove, thanks for the clarification, I think having two separate party lines is cool. The bunny trail for idiotic behavior and Coffee Talk for...idiotic behavior. Think about it....what a great time we could have had with this kind of conversation during our cult days...fun..without feeling someone was going to report you to the Gestapo.

Tikie and John, Instant coffee and Pinto beans?? No need for Exlax during your college years, huh?

Matt

[john_r_jones]

Isn't this great we can be sick and twisted with folks from all over the globe! Speak nice of you to drop (ala Maxwell House) in.

Thanks a latte for starting this one. Sorry, I am such a has-bean. I thought I would milk this topic some more. It is helping me get through the daily grind. Even though I can be such a mug it is important to stay strong throughout all of this.

So what's brewing in EN after their latest conference.?Someone said that things are coming to a head in the organisation, but I think it might just be this person's black humor.


This poses another question: Is the coffee around here break fluid or the fancy stuff?

Ok, time to put a lid on it. Must go.

1 plain and simple coffee to go, please!

[wiseasaserpentgentleasadove]

Yeah, John-it's amazing!
and welcome Speak! Grab a cup of java!

Personally I am more of a tea drinker.

Wiseassdove, this is brilliant.

There's a double dutch bus
comin' down the street
Movin pretty fast
So kinda shuffle your feet
Get on the bus and pay your fare
And tell the driver that you're
Goin' to a Double Dutch Affair
Fe Fi Fo Fum
Well I'll be darn here it comes
The Double Dutch Bus is on the street
You'd better get off the curb
Move your feet

I have had an epiphany! The 1962 Blue Bird for the Bunny Trail...kind of old school, beer drinking sinners...and the Double Dutch Bus for you EN Hip Noir types with the coffee mugs. Of course, all passengers are welcome on either line, by giving one of the many passwords: MCM, MSI,EN, or just plain old SOS.

of course the SOS has a double meaning. It may just be plain old cry for 'help' OR when you string MCM/MSI/EN together it becomes the "same old (sound of startrek door closing)"

hmmm...is that what SameO means? Did she fall out Miltie's window? Must have rocked too much with the Rolling Rock.
