I hate the way blogger and comments/profile is set up because either I am a moron (which is more likely) or blogger is stupid, because I can not get a maximized anything when clicking on a profile.

I wonder if they changed something. I also used to buy that green bag of Starbucks at Costco too, but I actually prefer Rwandan Coffee (Land of a Thousand Hills) and bought some of that when the SB ran out. Now I have nothing good, just CFON, which is actually good.<BR/><BR/>Groovy---Yeah, it is not always the case, we are worth SOMETHING. We may not look as pretty as we do it though!!! Ha ha.<BR/><BR/>Ponder---that is quite funny about the Japanese bartender, He was the vending machine supervisor!<BR/><BR/>Ali---Cains, huh? I think I have seen that package before. In the past, I mean, not sure about now. I decided to look it up to see if I could finds some online, and found that Chock Full O Nuts bought them out (at least that is what I read)! Huh. I will keep my eye out for it everywhere I go. It is rare you find King Vitamin down the cereal aisle these days too.<BR/><BR/>Uncle Joe---How funny! I hope it is still around so I can try it!!! :)Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04278853060753601322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17204128.post-76465560555045903262008-02-13T23:38:00.000-05:002008-02-13T23:38:00.000-05:00wow, Cain's is the co.

If they can light up the tiles from the production studio, you know they could also reveal the letters. It's like old Vanna is just a tradition with no real purpose. It might feel that way to be a homeschooling mom some days, but that is so not the case, right?Genhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17832495079371007018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17204128.post-86080081899813607662008-02-13T14:39:00.000-05:002008-02-13T14:39:00.000-05:00I like Starbucks house coffee, but I'm always surp...I like Starbucks house coffee, but I'm always surprised Folgers tastes as good as it does.<BR/><BR/>I buy my beans at Costco(Sam's Club) because they use Starbucks beans and roast them right there.

It takes a lot for me to stay mad; I am no longer mad about it, or even sad. I think other factors make the matter worse that I will not relate on the blog here. <BR/><BR/>That is hard to deal with, a girl crying, a neck broken. Yikes. Thanks for the story.

Not a great guitar but playable anyway. I think a Washburn. At church one Sunday I sang a song for my sunday school teacher that I wrote for him and his family and sang at his deacon ordination or whatever you call it. After the service we went over to eat lunch at the Family life center and when I walked back over to get my guitar his daughter met me at the door crying.<BR/>She had picked up the guitar to play around with it and the strap came undone and the neck snapped off when the guitar hit part of the podium.<BR/>I had to learn to forgive very quickly that day.Whistle Britcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01896698165547735903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17204128.post-25894692598606033562008-02-13T08:06:00.000-05:002008-02-13T08:06:00.000-05:00it's so funny you posted about this ... we were ju...it's so funny you posted about this ... we were just having a discussion about coffee (my friends and I) the other day because I'm trying to find a really smooth tasting coffee I don't need to add a ton of flavored creamer to ... one of my friends dads said Chok ful o' nuts (is that heavenly coffee) was one of the best, so I just bought it. I normally drink 8 O'clock hazlenut and grind the beans every morning so it has been a nice break not to... but... I still add a ton of vanilla creamer to it... bummer... it is good though.Jacquiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13688880292416104441noreply@blogger.com
