It is by caffeine that I set my mind in motion. It is by the product of the coffee bean that thoughts acquire speed, hands acquire shakes, shakes become a warning. It is by caffeine that I set my mind in motion.

It all depends on the size of one’s “cup”, afterall. I only have 2 cups worth, but each are 16oz. So maybe that is about a pot. Needless to say, I bring a thermos to work otherwise I’d be quite poor.

I limit myself to 12 cups (one pot) a day.

3-4 cups a day is considered moderate??? ouch… if you’re drinking more than that of anything a day then you have a problem..

I’ve tried life without coffee and life with coffee and I say: Definitely with! Maybe not 6 cups a day but at least some.

Anybody remember those great “Coffee Achiever” commercials in the U.S. run by the coffee industry? Those were great… fast paced, really frantic with the chorus of “Hold on tight to your dreams!” Hah hah… I am guilty of being a coffee achiever myself.

Make mine black and REALLY strong. If it’s available, I’m stir in a dash or two (or 3) of unsweetened cocoa powder (sort of half-dissolves) for some extra anti-oxidents. The resulting sludge will kill anything trying to invade my body.

I wonder if many of these benefits are enhanced or negatively affected when one puts sugar and milk in the coffee. Because I cannot drink just plain ol’black coffee by itself makes me queasy. So, I also end up putting milk and a bit of sugar in it. Same thing with tea. But then again I think that is because I was brought up in a household where my Dad was brought up with the English sense of a “spot of milk and two cubes of sugar” in the tea cup.

SW: If you are going to correct someone’s English, shouldn’t you at least capitalize the word “I”?

Having just finished my second (and final) delicious cup of the day, I say, “Drink Up!”

I don’t know how healthy drinking coffee is or isn’t, but all I know is every time I see someone on tv that is 90 or 100 years old that is asked about their diet, they almost always drink coffee.
