What's your pick me up of choice?

Earl Grey for me, two bags please. I tried an Americano at Starbucks recently. Yuk.

What about you? Coffee, tea, soda, amphetamines?

Espresso. A single shot every afternoon at 2:00. Can't imagine 3:00 without it.

Coffee. Black.
The worst coffee on the planet has to be Starbucks. Just my opinion.

I find a good old Keith Richards-esque speedball at lunch to do the rick. Couldn't imagine an afternoon around here without it.

OK, so it's not just me.

I like chocolate-covered espresso beans. A handful and and I'm wide-awake...for weeks.

8 oz of Eight-o-Clock 100% Columbian, produced with a Jura-Capresso Super Automatic.

The above cycle repeats about every 2 hours. Time for another one...

A latte from the local bikini babe espresso stand. The coffee is poor, but the service is excellent.

Tried several times and it was ugly..
