I finally found and ordered my BYOing cup. Siel will be proud. I like the aesthetics. The 17 ouncer, of course. 1149. Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog, BYOing

I love this car. But ragtops, the desert, and moderately effective aircons just does not work. Presh gets covered parking at her office. But on days when I drive it sits in the hot sun. I went to Quiznos today for lunch (classic Italian on wheat). After returning, I removed [...]

Today, is the one year anniversary of MetroBlogging Phoenix. A year ago today we began our conversation with this post. 1147. Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog, MetroBlogging

We will just call this one coffee in/coffee out. 1146. Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog

Siel, writes in to congratulate me for BYOing. Truth is I am still borrowing Presh’s cup. I continue my search for the perfect cup. I want one like Siel has. I like the aesthetics but not the size. I need a minimum capacity of 16 ounces. Can you help [...]

I am back to the diphenhydramine HCL-caffiene cycle. 1144. Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog

I subscribe to the WSJ, Daily Variety, and Backpacker magazine and am patiently awaiting all the junk mail. What lists do you suppose I am on? Are there any East German prisons left to escape from? 1143. Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog

A year ago today, after quitting my job to join Presh in the desert, I made a pie. What did you do? 1142. Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog

Spent the last few hours listening to a Santana cover band. Presh had The Wedding Singer flashbacks, but I thought they rocked. Now it is time to write. 1140. An Elvis movie is keepping me company. The sound is off and I can see it flash out of the corner of my [...]

I do not think Presh wants to see Clerks II. She laughed at the Kevin Smith interview concert film thing, but has never been a fan of the original. Too bad, I went to see that Pirate film. I am out of half and half. 1139. Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog,

Today was a very interesting day. I got to meet Andrea Evans an artist who paints to explore that which she experiences. I want to say I blog to explore that which I experience. No, I blog because it amuses me that people look at and read about my coffee cups. [...]

The morning was spent watching this very strange Japanese movie. Presh was almost hypnotized, almost. I hit the off button just in time. The temperature is scheduled to hit 115 on a day I need to be outside. I feel strangely calm about this. Must be the coffee… 1136. Tags: [...]

Let us see how long this lasts. The cups return. I decided to continue the numbering based upon posted cups. If I shot them and posted them they were counted. I am not going to relable the entries. I wonder if this means we can expect Episode 40 soon… 1135. Tags: Coffee, [...]

The Amcor PLM14000E portable air conditioner is designed to condition average-sized rooms up to 400 sq. ft. I set-up the unit in my office with an area of about 300 square feet. The set-up was simple and straight forward. You can view the Unboxing effort here. There is an exhaust hose that [...]

Coffee Cup 1125 was posted here and is known as The Last Cup. Turns out, not so much… Coffee Cup 1126 was posted here when I realized that maybe there was more to say. Coffee Cup 1127 was posted here though I was not yet ready to commit to shooting each cuppa. Coffee Cup 1128 was posted [...]

The last cup posted before The Last Cup was Coffee Cup 1096. There were others that I shot, but I fell behind in the posting, then got distracted, then ended the blog. Here for the first time are those cups. The accounting will continue. Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog

5 August 2006 is about a month away. I wonder if Presh wants to trip out to The City for a day? Buddy Jason is going, I think. Who else? Tags: Coffee, Cup, Blog, Party With Matt

Nevermind where. Suffice it to say that there was a urinal, one of the new ones, with the cover removed. I had to take a picture. I even stood in front then moved away so it would flush. That is when I shot the picture. I think I need to [...]

I am often asked, who or what were TheCoolKids.US. The answer I usually give is that they were a band and leave it at that. A pained and distant look usually dissuades follow up questions. Suffice it to say that the “band” broke up. One landed in jail, I think, in [...]

The very first thing I do, still do, when I wake up in the morning, before coffee and bios, is scan the feed for news. My brain took more than a beat to process “Building explodes, collapses in New York”. A gas leak with no fatals, so far. Stay tuned… Tags: Coffee, Cup, [...]
