Since we're on the topic of coffee, I couldn't help but share this picture with y'all. Its a photograph taken right at the moment a splash of milk hits the surface of a cuppa damn fine coffee...

Insane!

Well, I guess those 10-20 cups are of american coffee and not Italian espresso. Or he'll have a stroke before saying "napkin".

Word from an Italian who praises the national coffee but can't bear no more than one coffee cup per day.

Beware, guys. Not only junk food is dangerous...

MILK??????!!?

Blasphemy - I drink it blacker than midnight on a moonless night.

Caffeine and Nicotine - what a catchy title for an indie film - are a nasty combination of addictions.  I didn't know this but nicotine works to lessen the effects of caffeine.  When smokers cut down their daily allotment of cigarettes but continue with their usual caffeine dosage, the caffeine effects are increased.

Not that there's anything wrong with willfully wreaking havoc on your body...

One more question for Califorinansm how available is David Lynch's coffee there?

"Every day holds a new beginning and every hour holds the promise of an Invitation to Love." 

You are correct, Mr. Silencio. A little play on words.

Smokey, I think those people may have been joshing you, were smoking something other than cigarettes, or had an encounter with a rogue cop. Never heard of such a thing. But it is possible they had a rude encounter with the law while passing through Calabasas, the smoke-free town. This link which describes all the "whereas's" of their smoking ban.  Pretty funny document!

Here's the Wikipedia California smoking ban laws:

• California, 1994 banned in almost all workplaces (excepting tobacconists), including all restaurants, and in 1998 smoking was banned in bars. Additionally, California prohibits smoking within 20 feet of any door or window of any government building within the state, including buildings owned or occupied (e.g. leased) by any government entity, including public universities, or public buildings leased to private firms.
  • San Luis Obispo, 2 August 1990 became the first city in the world to ban smoking in all public buildings
  • Calabasas, 2006 banned in all indoor and outdoor public places, except for a handful of scattered, desginated outdoor smoking areas in town. Believed to be the strictest ban in the United States.

As for the Lynch coffee, I haven't seen it. I don't think it's on the shelves of any major supermarkets yet.

That last bit of that member question called "coffee break" on Dynamic: 01 says it all:

 Dave says, "Cheers" and chugs an entire cappuccino from a big mug, and the guy off camera says, very seriously, "It's not water."  And Dave gives him that 'look-I know- I-have-problem-but-it's-under-control' expression you see on alcoholics.
