Hey Larry  I average about four cups of coffee in a twelve hour period."L.D."---C`mon, man! Who you trying to kid, eh? You knock out 32 oz of coffee before breakfast. kronk---Dog! You're always trying to tarnish the image I try to project! "L.D."---I do that to benefit humankind. Wanna' know what image I see when I look at you? kronk---No! "L.D."---A slug. kronk---Ugh!  |

Back in the 14th century, we didn't have access to coffee beans. "L.D."---....and...? kronk---We broke branches off the "yaupon holly" shrubs, roasted the leaves over an open fire, then put the leaves in a pot with ditch water, boiled `em until a yellow froth formed and then drank anywhere from two to four gallons, while the stuff was still hot. "L.D."---I remember those parties. That stuff had four times as much caffeine as coffee. It was actually quite entertaining to watch. A gang of desperate freaks choking from the driftwood fire smoke, scalding their mouths, running into each other like demented wind up toy, then throwing up and starting all over again. kronk---Hey! Times were tough, in the days before cough syrup was invented. "L.D."---You're sick. kronk----hehehe |

What's the absolute worst "coffee experience" you've ever had? "L.D."---I never touch the stuff. What's yours? kronk---On one job I was on, this dude would sell coffee to the contract workers assigned to our unit. "He" would brew a pot, save and bake the coffee grounds in an oven, then mix the old grounds with about 30% new grounds and make another pot. "L.D."---Hummmm..That's sounds a little dishonest. kronk---Well, it was and then, it wasn't? "L.D."---Quit fooling around, or I will be forced to bite you. How much did the guy sell the coffee for? kronk---Alright, alright... A 6oz cup of the first run coffee sold for $.15---A second run cup of coffee sold for $.10 and a third run cop went for a nickel. So, basically, the buyer pretty much got what they paid for. "L.D."---Well, I dunno' The whole deal still sounds a little fishy to me. Who was this guy? kronk---His name was Everlast Cornelius Blanks, but everyone just called him "Re-run." "L.D."---Ugh! |

Kronk and L.D., I feel as if I’m a caffeine vampire so to speak. I don’t drink coffee except when I rise each morning. I must consume a four large mug minimum else I will never greet the day with optimism…. After that I’m fine and do not require coffee for the remainder of the day. Remember back at the start of the Covid pandemic? People were in a panic to buy up all the toilet paper they could get their hands on? Yeah….. well I stocked up on coffee like there was no tomorrow.  |

You know, had this “ Yaupon” holly been introduced to the gaming world back in the day, I think that Mountain Dew and energy drinks never would’ve had a chance. It even had health benefits…go figure. P.S. I always enjoy reading your comments and laughing as well as learning new things.Kudos! |

Hey Larry I do like my coffee, but Mrs. Kronk is the real caffeine freak. She rat-holed about thirty pounds of the stuff during those times. "L.D."---Yeah, I remember when you dropped the coffee pot and broke it, on Christmas day. Mother told you to go and find a coffee pot and don't come back until you did. kronk---None of the department stores were open. Lucky for me, I looked across the street and saw that "the Mayor" was passed out on the ground in front of his porch. I hauled him inside, dumped him on the couch and his mother traded their coffee pot for a ride downtown. "L.D."---Yes, indeed. There was all sort of excitement that Christmas. Police cruisers pulled up in the yard, camera crews and irate bikers. All over one coffee pot. kronk---No way, dog. Nobody cared about the coffee pot. After I dropped the mayor's mother off, downtown, she broke into the local chapter of the "Galloping Gooses" motorcycle club and made off with three cases of gin, two cases of 151 rum, the president of the club's favorite pipe tobacco and their pet "partridge in a pear tree." "L.D."---Those were good times. kronk---Yeah. |

Awww, come on man, ask him. kronk---Oh, alright. Hey Larry "L.D." wants me to ask you if you'd mind if he told a joke on your post?"L.D."---Well? What did he say? kronk---He hasn't said anything, yet. I just asked him. "L.D."---Well...hurry up and get something going. I'm anxious to tell the joke. kronk---Hey Larry may not come back to this post for some time; days, possibly. "L.D."---Ugh! |

Thanks, Hey Larry I think that we should pull a few strings and see about getting Hey Larry a nomination. He's got what it takes, I think. I'd vote for him. That's for sure. kronk---You couldn't vote for anyone. You're a dog. "L.D."---That's "Canis lupus familiaris" to you, bucko. kronk---Whatever...How about that joke, eh? "L.D."---"They" stood embracing in the center of the dimly lit room. She gazed up into his eyes and spoke softly, seductively, "Undress me with your words."...... kronk---Well? What'd he say? "L.D."---He said, "There is a spider in your bra." kronk---I don't get it? "L.D."---Ugh! |
