Got out of bed this morning, plodded to the kitchen putting on my glasses enroute and not turning on the lights since it was almost light enough to see. I turned on the tap, took the lid off the new can of coffee and picked up the coffee pot with my left hand then proceeded to fill up the new coffee can with water :mad: After I got over my stupidity I puzzled over why the sodden coffee grounds were looking strangely bleary and finally realized I'd put on my husband's glasses. :roll: He is far-sighted and I'm near- sighted. There are a few messages in this experience and I don't like ANY of them!

Boy you don't stand a chance- only thing worse would be a blonde Swede :wink: :lol:

Up here in this old immigrant area the Germans used to say a Norwegian was just a German with 1/2 their brains kicked out- a Swede was just a Norwegian with the rest of them kicked out.. :wink: :lol:

well you have to wonder what all of the years of eating fish soaked in Lye has done for us a breeding group :) I know our captors were trying to kill us, however it backfired and we became strong line OX, unfortunate side effect was smart like stick. I'm fairly sure that has a lot to do with it....lol Truth of the matter is I come from a rather long line of "goofballs". I'm the quiet one in the family, ROTFLMAO!

We just heard that Germany is having a brain drain. The intelligencia are moving out to Switzerland, Austria and England. So maybe it is Paybacks time?

nr, did ya ever get that cup of coffee you so desperately needed?
Sure did, are you kidding?! Then I spread the rest of the coffee out on foil and dried it. I'll get a new can for company but I cant' stand to waste stuff and doubt it'll kill me drinking the redried stuff. yech- sounds terrible :???:

:lol: :lol: :lol: I wouldn't do that to my friends but you're right- if I added some chocolate, whipped cream on top with a sprinkling of cinnamon and sugar I could call it Starbucks Austrian maybe? I know you hate Starbucks so that wouldn't be a plus. I had a double strength cup this morning and couldn't tell any difference. Tells something about the ol tastebuds.

This reminds me of somethin I did one time. My folks have drank Folgers n nothin but Folgers for as long as I can remember n prolly even longer than that. When we moved to East Texas, they had plans to come visit. So I went grocery shoppin the mornin they were to arrive that afternoon. Bein young, and money bein tight, I'm at the grocery store, and notice that the store brand is wayyyyyy cheaper than Folgers. So....I debated for a lil bit n decided....what the heck......we'll see how the store brand measures up....LOL
I was bein so sneaky, or at least I thought I was. I came home n put all the groceries up, and opened that lil "brick" thing of coffee and put it in my coffee canister there on the cabinet. See....no package...they'll never know. Threw the package away.
Mom n Dad got here, n I proceeded to make coffee. They each got a cup, n sat down. We talked for a while....I started supper....nothin was said about the coffee till later that evenin. Mom asked, "This aint Folgers is it?" I said...."Why does it taste funny?" She said "no it doesn't taste funny, but why didnt ya hide the package down in the bottom of the trash can, instead of layin right on top?" Hehe I told her it was a taste test. She couldnt tell the difference, but you know how mom's are...ya can't get by with much with em. :D
