Which brings up a question... how do they get the alcohol in Irish Oatmeal?

well, that's because of the alcohol in it.

well, I have a perculator. I lieks it. I don't drink coffee that often tho. I'm an alcohol drinker.

I used to have a perculator until one morning (back in high school) I walked into the kitchen, pressed the on button and it fired itself across the room.

That was a bad day.

I don't drink coffee, I never developed a taste for it.  And it's not like I have never tasted it, I tried some when I was 10 or 12 and nearly gagged.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Starbucks = Evil. Evil nasty terrible yucky garbage.
I've always liked nescafe bean coffee.  Gevalia's good, but is a pain in the ass to get, and it's mail-order, meaning they'll do the automatic shipment thing similar to Columbia House music club.    \

As a slight aside, has anyone tried one of those "instant" coffees that are self heating... that is, they're shaped rather like a pot noodle and (when you press the button on the top) it releases a chemical reaction that rapidly heats the drink inside to boiling point. Bang, instant coffee.

They're actually not bad.. but damn strong.

Yep, I pick them up in Glasgow Central sometimes, when I'm waiting for the train to the airport, not bad at all :)

I actually prefer various fresh juices that I make at home. :p Barring that, I'd go for tea - my friend SilveN has been trying to convert me onto properly brewed coffee, though. ;)
