I liked the sentiment on the cup more than the coffee. It was so hot I HAD to wear my work gloves to hold it.

    Don't ask why I am addicited to your site but I am. I notice we both like coffee. That's my real adDICtion I wish you lived in Los Angeles again because that's where I live (or rather enjoy coffee.) Have you ever been to the best coffee joint in LA? If so tell me where it is and I'll tell you mine. I'll admit some of your entries our off topic...not about coffee...haha but I'm too embarassed to even let you see my lame blog so I am going anonymouse...squeek squeek. Anyhow I though you wold like to know more about Coffee. I think it's interesting anyhow. Are you visiitng la sometime soon. I'd meet you for a sip. I've never been to Ohio. Is it really cold? I thought it was where the potatoes come from and that it would be kind of warm. I like the Indepent Coffee pix can you tell us more about it. Oh I am guilty I keep a coffee log...with who, what, when, where....It's kind of fun. I made a calendar from all my entries last year so I could try and remember where I was and what I sipped the year before. And yes I often retrace my steps but that isn't the worse thing I could do..that would be giving on coffee man. Do you have alot of kids. Anyhow about coffee
    One-third of the people in the world enjoy coffee, served hot or cold, in amounts larger than those of any other drink. With so many coffee lovers around, there are probably a hundred ways to brew a great cup. At XXX Coffee, we have the passion and the know-how to make and serve some of the best-tasting coffee on the planet.

    Some coffee facts to sip on.

    Germany is the world's second-largest consumer of coffee in terms of volume at 16 pounds per person.
    Over 53 countries grow coffee worldwide, but all of them lie along the equator between the tropic of Cancer and Capricorn.
    An acre of coffee trees can produce up to 10,000 pounds of coffee cherries. That amounts to approximately 2,000 pounds of beans after hulling or milling.
    The percolator was invented in 1827 by a French man. It would boil the coffee, producing a bitter-tasting brew. Today most people use the drip or filtered method to brew their coffee.
    With the exception of Hawaii and Puerto Rico, no coffee is grown in the United States or its territories.
    Up until the 1870s most coffee was roasted at home in a frying pan over a charcoal fire. It wasn't until recent times that batch roasting became popular.
    Each year some 7 million tons of green beans are produced worldwide. Most of which is handpicked.

    Hope I didn't bore you.

    Oh thanks for your comment on my post.

    I have been to the Cow's End but had a kind of crappy experience but I should have ordered a regular coffee and not a mint flavor latte. I never heard of the Water Lilly Cafe. Where is it? What should I order. Cafe Mimosia? What are you kidding? I was there like two weeks ago. LOVE IT. You OBVIOUSLY have good tastebuds. Not to be nosey but are you married? How many kids do you have? I have one but I don't live with him anymore or his daddy.

    Hey Beany!

    Thanks for taking an interest in my blog. Stay tuned for reports on Ohio and Coffee.

    The nick name Joe Bob is not my nick name at all. It's a long story... "Joe Bob says check it out!" is a catch phrase a hill-billy drive in movie reviewer used when he liked a film.

    Topanga Canyon is where you'll find both the mimosa and the water lilly.

    Stay tuned for more news and weather...

    Hey Joe Bob

    thanks for your comment. Sorry I must be buggy you? I just thought blogs were a way for people to learn about each other.

    So I was wrong about the mimosa if it's in the Caynon. There is a coffee shop in Burbank called the Mimosa Breakfast Nook...that's the one I like. I'll have to go to the Canyon soon I just never go there. I heard it's a hippy hangout and I'm not a hippie. You don't come across as one either though...well except for the stone chicken title ..you said that story was coming soon.....So when is Now?

    today's halloween so I need to finish making my candy treats for the little monsters. Halloween is pretty big in Califonia..is it in Ohio too?

    Your BEANY BOO!-

    Thanks Me.

    I hope you had a scary and coffee fueled HallowBEAN. My was ok until my not so productive agent called me and twisted mi arm.
    I have to audition for a stupid commerical today. My agent sucks. I told her I only want to do features and shorts but she insists on send me to the adverts. Fortuantely its for the Mexican market this time.

    Are there any gigs in Ohio that I could audition for? Are you directing something.

    Anyhow I was thinking about going to the Valley today but this audition is first....that why I am writing this so early. 5:45AM!!! I'm waiting for the driver before I get dressed because he always makes me wait. The games we play. It's so crazy boy.

    Ooops there I go again rambling and stuff. I wish you had more time int he day...me tooooo1

    From my toe tips through my hips out my lips "Happy Novembre!!"

    Beany Boop :-9
