Another quiz for you to enjoy while you are supposed to be working (and I am supposed to be convalescing) .. and gee, how did they know that I'd chew coffee beans if I was in a crunch?

 Hyper and driven, you'll take your caffeine any way you can get it. Frappuccinos are good, but you'd probably chew coffee beans in a crunch! |

I guess I suspected that this might be a problem, but it really sank in when a close colleague told me the other day that he was freaked out by it. And I'd hate to have you hear it from anyone else but me.
I'm a decaf drinker.
Yeah, I know. Nowadays you can't count on a philosopher to smoke like…
If it weren't for coffee, much of the research that gets done today wouldn't get done. Or so I am led to believe based on the reverence people seem to have for the sacred bean. Frankly, I'd trade a cup of coffee for a good night's sleep. Hell, I'd trade a cup of coffee for pretty much anything.…
In the spirit of helping my readers increase their preparedness, I thought I'd remind you that you have 0 more days before Zombie Day to shop and get ready for Zombie attacks. So just in case there are zombies coming down your pike, and you aren't ready, I offer a reprint of a piece I wrote about…
It is manifestly the case that I have never fully mastered keeping things from getting overwhelming, but I get better at it every year (mostly). And there is a lot you can do to make sure that the canning and preserving don't make you crazy!
Despite the fact that you've got a life, a job, a family…
Glad you are posting again. I think I'll celebrate with a mocha.
Hmmmm. The poll sux. You did not provide a "none of the above" to any of the questions.
== I prefer my coffee beverage with NO syrup. My point.
== I prefer my coffee in the comfort of my own home. Ditto.
== I do not patronize coffee houses. Question moot.
== My mood does not change when I OD on caffeine. My point.
== I have no desire to visit a coffee producing nation. My point.
But, nice try. Are you sure you are a scientist?
I don't like coffee. So I do get extra points as I can't do this quiz?
I show as caffe vanilla frappucino. We brew shade-grown, free-trade coffee at my office, by the way. I have never chewed on a coffee bean and was not even aware of such practices till Grrl Scientist informed me of what I was missing. Is this akin to chewing tobacco? Glad to see you back, G/S. Lab Cat, start by mixing milk and sugar; then add a skosh of coffee to impart mild flavor. Pretty soon you will like coffee, too. Admittedly I cannot tolerate unadultereated coffee alkaloids, so with me it all depends on the added ingredients. Glo, are you a computer trying to pass the Turing Test? You flunk.
It's good to see you're still around.
On coffee, I'm with Sid:
