"I couldn't possibly fail to disagree with you less."
28 December 2006Emergency Java installationI don't think of myself as being a caffeine freak, but in this regard I am obviously delusional in the extreme, given my consumption levels of iced tea and soda. The latter, perhaps, motivated a friend to send me a sampling of the wackier Jones Soda flavors, which fortunately don't contain any caffeine. Despite my own limited interest in drinks based on ground-up beans, I have a certain sympathy for the deprived coffee drinker:
The evening required a side trip to locate somewhere to obtain drinkable coffee. This, in the past, has been a feat of skill. It is not even something that you can ask the locals about as the majority of them do not drink coffee — so they MAY be able to point you in the direction of somewhere that has coffee, but they cannot tell you whether it is palatable.
Tibet? Nope. Utah. The place to ask the question may be the condom aisle of the drug store. Or, if you time it right, the parking lot of one of the three or four non-LDS churches in the state.

I'm in Vernal frequently - there are three or four coffee "huts" along the road, and all the restaurants and convenience stores have it by the gallon. Drinkable, though? I'm not sure, being a Diet Pepsi guy. Heh - a dry county for coffee. What a concept. Do those who require the liquid for sustenance have to go to the county line? Starbucks as a speakeasy?

Frankly, I'm tickled at the thought of a veggie friend whom I shall not name sampling the turkey soda. (There's not any actual turkey in there, so far as I can tell.) |
