Mom has one and that thing keeps stuff hot all day long. And I agree: a fish wearing jeans would be pretty unproductive... hahahaha<br /><br />@L: Ha, I love hot tea, too, but that does even worse with the thermos. I boiled some water and poured it in and brought it to work and thought I'd steep some brew, but it was so nasty that I couldn't even finish. Have fun with the puzzle!<br /><br />@Dave: Why yes, yes I did quote KOTOR into my rant. What can I say? I loved those games back when they came out. I even got a Darth Revan action figure thing at home...logankstewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12269634215857320344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19648568.post-54424401178266798272011-02-03T21:11:53.091-06:002011-02-03T21:11:53.091-06:00Coffee is beautiful, in moderation.

What I pay for it could never be labeled "moderation", lol. <br /><br />I've discovered that people are just people, whether they be Christian or not. Nothing to be timid or nervous about, really. Of course, when I act in front of large groups, I do it without my glasses on. The "audience" is one big blur to me, and I can easily forget they are there. If I could see them all, with their beedy little eyes watching me, I know I'd forget my lines and run for the door...<br /><br />Did you really work a KOTOR quote into your rant? That is awesome...David Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07594244647778062784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19648568.post-83768592080489685652011-02-03T13:22:27.510-06:002011-02-03T13:22:27.510-06:00i don't drink coffee, but i understand the tho...i don't drink coffee, but i understand the thought of "i paid good money for this...". i am particular about drinking my hot tea hot, it just doesn't re-warm, and so i have taken to actually using some of the little teapots i've been gifted. your description of your consumption was brilliant by the way.<br /><br />--will have to work on that puzzle, thanks. i like puzzles.<br /><br />--growth is good, and praising God for it is wonderful. which gospel i tend to gravitate towards for encouragement changes, but I am ever drawn to Romans to humble and uplift.<br /> <br />--how non-football a family are we three here? the only remarks on the superbowl coming up last night was..."hmmm, maybe we should stock up on Dr. Pepper and Chips since they'll be on sale, you know, with the SuperBowl and all..." the daughter (10) goes: "The SuperBowl?"<br /><br />~LAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19648568.post-73128615819959569152011-02-03T09:41:52.449-06:002011-02-03T09:41:52.449-06:00Don't you "something something thermodyna...Don't you "something something thermodynamics" me! One of our class projects for Heat Transfer was actually the design of a thermos that had to keep a "biological sample" frozen during transport for 36 hours. It was frustrating but educational.<br /><br />On the same topic, I once owned one of those thermos's you see in movies at construction sites; built-in serving cup cap included. And I have to say that thing could keep something warm or cold for nearly the whole day. Definitely worthwhile if you're in need of keeping something hot, and especially if it helps cut down on coffee purchases or consumption.<br /><br />And lastly props to the sentiments in your "rant." (That period just doesn't look right inside the quotes! /offtopic) If someone doesn't believe in <i>carpe diem</i> then perhaps they're just a carp in denim.
