    I can do it on hot, summer mornings. I do replace it with Coke or Mountain Dew.

    All the time that I was working (before retirement), Mrs. smokeywolf would get up 20 minutes before me, make coffee, wake me up with a fresh cup and fill an insulated travel cup for my 50 mile drive to work.
    A little off topic but, 11 to 12 hours later when I'd get home from work, she'd meet me at the truck with an ice cold beer in an iced mug.

    Smokey your wife is a jewel. My wife, on her way home from a hard day teaching high school idjits would send me a one word text msg: "COFFEE". GW

    Caffeine deficiency is valid legal defense for every crime except murder.

    There is no problem so great, that it cannot be solved by the proper application of high explosives.

    My stomach actually gets twisted all up if I don't have any caffeine in the mornings . For the last 8 months been trying to cut back on caffeine I fill my thermos half with decaf half high test and only drink coffee at home on the weekend mornings . Usually about half pot

    No coffee? not sure how I'd react as I haven't ever tried or been in a situation where I've needed to. I even bring a coffee pot and a one burner stove to the range each week!

    I buy organic french roast coffee in two pound bags. Been known to have 4 bags in reserve. I'm the only coffee drinker in the house.

    Don't/can't drink decaffeinated. Less than 2 cups by 5PM and I end up with a migraine headache by 9PM.

    Last Wednesday afternoon down in Santa Fe I bought some freshly roasted Yemen Mocha beans. Oh, my. How wonderful. Treat yourself every now and then. It will keep you out of the slammer.

    I'll be 67 this month. I started drinking coffee at 11. Can drink it all day, from sunup to sundown. Any way, lip scalding hot to iced, but DON'T put no sugar in it, burnt or a day old, if it's there I'll drink it. I really like coffee.

    My WIFE sets up the COFFEE POT every night. She doesn't drink it, but she understands it. Her Father drank Coffee PERIOD, NOTHING ELSE.
    I flip the COFFEE make on my way to the head every morning. By the time walk outa the head the COFFEE is ready. I allow myself no more then 3 12oz cups a day.
    I don't drink it anywhere but home. Restaurant coffee tastes like warm water with a brown crayon dipped in it.
    And I sure don't go into starbucks or buy their anti-CONSTITUTION **** in a bag.
    I HATE auto-correct

    A few months back I accepted a challenge at church to 'fast' something one day a week I really like and use the time to pray for our upcoming revival. Up until that time I didn't realize how addicted I am to caffeine. Well I made it and we had a great revival, but I found out about my addiction. On those days I had a humdinger of a headache, and generally felt lousy. The wife and I do like our coffee.
