I have this $5 Starbucks card, that I want to give to somebody on the cave...any takers?
-
ooh a give away contest. I in.
-
No thanks, I don't do Starbucks...when i want a cup of coffee, I want coffee. Not something with a dash and a twist and whipped cream on top.

I've heard a very appropriate name for the company. It's called "Charbucks."
In the very infrequent occasions I have to go into a Charbucks, I ask for black coffee. I always get a funny look, because apparently most people order goop and sugar with a dash and a twist and whipped fluff on top.
hi5, btw

There's a very good reason we don't have many Starbucks around here.
It's called Dunkin Donuts.
-
I hate coffee but their Double Chocolate-y Chip Frappacino - non fat, no whip and extra chocolate drizzle on top - is quite good. :drool: It's my occasional Saturday treat.
I tried their lime cooler.... wasn't bad, until I realized how much I paid for it. Then it was nasty!
Also think their hot chocolate sucks.
I really don't see how people can go there on a regular basis...too expensive!
-
No thank you. I have never done the coffee thing. I love me a big ole ice tea with lemon though.
On second thought......... :naughty: I'll play a game for it/I want it!

I had a REALLY good strawberry ice tea from Wendy's yesterday. I asked for it unsweetened but still the strawberry juice added just a nice hint of sweetness. Now I want another, dammit!
-
Nice offer! I'll pass, I too call it "Charbucks". Had their coffee once, asked for it "Americana", still tasted burnt. I'd rather go to Dutch Bros.

Best coffee in recent history was when me and the kids were passing through Mawah (otherwise know by us as MWAH!) New Jersey on our way back from my grandmother's funeral in April. Little tiny 7-Eleven next to a bridge/underpass thingy, popped in for a caffeine boost, and could not believe how absolutely delicious this coffee was. I don't even remember the hoity toity flavor i got, probably vanilla something or other, but it was the best EVAH.
And that takes a lot for me to say, because otherwise, I DESPISE 7-Eleven with a hate-filled-passion that almost consumes me on a daily basis.
-
I'm not a big coffee drinker but leftover coffee chilled in the refrigerator and served over ice makes a nice iced coffee (I toss in a hazelnut & vanilla creamer for every 8 ounces of coffee).
It helps if you store it in an air-tight container or it starts tasting funky.

Ooh! Ooh Pick me! I won't call YOU old ever again! Ooh me!

I do the strawberry Coolatta quite often. The Heiress likes the raspberry lime version. Pretty soon, it'll be time to switch to hot chocolate. If I want coffee, I make it for my wife and I (every morning).

If Carrot Top keeps up with the old comments....I'm gonna smack the shit out of him! (I hope he's short so I can reach!)
I don't know who Pilot gets their hot chocolate from, but it's the best ever. Especially with some French Vanilla Cream added to it. I've heard their coffee is also really good (I will never know!) It's also very cheap...a 20oz (maybe bigger) is $1.25. If you don't have a Pilot around, they also own Flying J ...I'm assuming the hot chocolate/coffee would be the same both places. They have several flavors of coffee...

Queen Elizabeths parents, but I don't know who they are. They are dead. Does that count?

"King" and "Queen"

Elizabeth? I don't know. When it comes to kings and queens I only know the ones in the Bible.

King George and Elizabeth. Hmmm, does that make Queen Elizabeth's mother Elizabeth the second queen being she was married to George?

I was talking about Queen Elizabeth the 1st. Her parents are King Henry the VIII and Anne Boleyn. Cl carrots , I am surprised in your theology lessons, that you didn't know this. It was his divorce from Katherine of Aragon, and marriage to Anne Boleyn, that was one of the main reasons of England's break from the Roman Catholic Church.

Opinions differ.

Baptists aren't protestant.
:???: :???:
-
Well I believe that Baptists have always been since the time of Christ. Have to be from the Roman Catholic Church to be a protestant.

Believing a thing does not make it so. DUmmies believe Obama will deliver each of them a Skittle-shitting unicorn.
The term "Protestant" refers to Christian denominations which reject the idea of the primacy of the Roman Catholic Church, to those which separated from Catholicism after the Orthodox/Catholic schism, and to those newer denominations which descend from the separatist groups.
Here's the line from Catholic to Baptist: The Anglican Church separated from the Roman Catholic Church. The Separatists separated from the Anglicans. The Baptists descended from the Separatists. The first Baptist church in the New World was in Providence, Rhode Island Colony in 1638, and it was solidly Baptist Separatist, and "protestant", as it rejected the primacy of the Roman Catholic Church and the Anglican Church.

Facts don't matter.

So... nobody else wants the card?
-
We have a Starbuck's here & no Dunkin Donuts. Hell, the doughnut shops close around noon. :(
I could always use a Starbuck's card. I like espresso. Sometimes it's easier to go there than to make it myself since my coffee grinder is on the fritz.

Since you wonderful people are not very well versed in British History, I will think of something else. I don't want to pick one person, then I will be accused of favoritism.
-
There are two common baptists theories. We derive from the Anabaptists which became prominent during the reformation of the Catholic church. The other is that baptist-like (Local New Testament) churches have existed since the time of Christ. I believe the second theory based of Biblical principles. Churches are local, and that God would protect his word and his church.

Your use of the word "theories" and your choice to believe in one of them, to the exclusion of the other, says that you disbelieve in the existence of Anabaptists and Baptists who descend from the English Separatists.
Do you really believe that the Amish and the Pilgrims are figments of our collective imagination?

I did at one time buy Duncan Donuts ice coffee with extra, extra before work. Kind of made me feel guilty as I could make that at home and every penny counted.
I noticed that after drinking a large I had to run to the bathroom to pee more often and when I peed my sugar level fell so low I was groggy. Sort of like the feeling after eating Thanks giving dinner one want to fall asleep.
Never tried Starbucks, the idea of paying over a dollar for coffee was crazy. Coffee is just flavored water and I remember buying a cup of coffee for 25 cents, sugar and cream free.
Worse coffee I ever had was at a rest stop on the NJ Turnpike. A large that came black so I grabbed some cream packets and sugar and got on the road again. The cream had soured and was crap. I there after learned to drink coffee black, just colored water.
I am sure Lot's of you have had some interesting experiences buying some kind of coffee at some time in your life.
Then the question, does the caffeine in coffee do more for a kick booster then a 8 ounce glass of orange juice ?????
Have we been sold a bill of goods from the coffee industry that Caffeine will boost ones metabolism over fruit juice ?
Then the Tea industry, interesting history, wars were fought over tea. Part of the spice wars that raged world wide.
