    At work, when I made a pot of coffee, it was legendary.

    Someone once found a half-formed spoon in a box of plastic-ware, and put it up next to the pot with a note:

    "Do not drink the coffee if sconeu has made the pot".

    Coffee should be made extra strong. Let the wimps water theirs down or add milk/cream/fake-creamer into it.

    Dear Messrs, Dent, Bilirakis, and King,

    Since your high school civics classes obviously forgot to include it in your course of study, please allow me to introduce you to the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.:

    Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

    (Emphasis is mine).

    Thank you.
