We've got a Keurig B3000 Brewing System with about 8 different types of coffee and teas, including Lemon Zinger and Mandrin Orange Spice. They also buy us pizza for lunch when phone traffic is high.

Words To Toast By
Live each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.
---Henry David Thoureau
He Wishes For The Cloths Of Heaven
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden or silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloths, Of night and light and half-light,I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly, because you tread on my dreams. W.B. Yeats
