I heard the paramedics at the hospital tell the doctor that I left my imprint in the grill of the truck. the initial impact didn't hurt at all ... it felt like someone ran up behind me and pushed me down -- Don't get me wrong, it was very powerful; but I wasn't thinking that I was hit by a vehicle. when I was lying in the street, it didn't hurt either. I stayed still to be cautious knowing that moving could cause more injury. Now, when the paramedics moved me -- then it hurt. Honk Kong , these guys drive on the wrong side of the road , one never expects a vehicle to come out from the opposite direction , and it took a while to get accustomed to walking and worse driving with a steering wheel on the right side , and the fast lane is on the left side ------- 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 The gray isn't burning off today, usually by now I've got to close the curtains on the two big east facing windows this time of year. Rain is back, no scraping or sanding now, got some stuff to catch on that's inside anyways. Retired is strange, when you don't sleep good until after you turn the alarm off that you usually are awake before it happens. Then wake up late.... so what! Made enough for two mugs! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I detest the light roast flavor even if I know there is more caffeine available in it. Like expresso only when I'm having it, dark roasts the same. I use 1 tbsp of grinds for every 6 - 7 oz of water with medium roast. Very clean water (takes less tea, coffee and sweetener to work well in this) 205 degree water and take the brew basket off from above the pot soon I get some in me. When I use the immersion method everything comes out darker. With the Bunn I had to get a different spray head that they actually gave me. All I had to do was call them and it makes the brew take a little longer! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyOwn Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 This is news on the Crappy Coffee Machine at my work place....🍻 I put .60 cents in it this morning and got a .60 cents cup of plain coffee...Plain, just the way I like it. About an hour later I put another .60 cents for another cup of this Fine "LOL" Stuff. The darn thing said try another selection and started spitting out small coffee cups. I pulled as many as I could from the darn thing and gave up. The motor that engages to dispense cups just kept running... So this started at 4:00 am this morning, the motor was still running at 8:00 am. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
