What are your thoughts on this place. LINK
A friend orders his coffee online from this place in Hawaii. I guess the ship shortly after roasting. I have not tried it, but he swears it is great. He used to run to Starbucks twice a day and figures though a bit expensive, he is still saving lots of money.

Jim, we have heard of them. I can't remember if we bought their coffee or not but they are part of the of the Kona coffee counsel and that is a valid organization with high standards for their Kona coffee.

I'm sure it's great.

edit: Dan says he remembers them too. We never had bad coffee down there.

oh and if you roasted your own coffee, you could roast Kona for about $16/lb

I was curious, because even shipped it is a fair bit cheaper than can be had locally.

Some day I will roast, but for now I must buy. I have way too many things on my plate as it is.

yeah, we bought it for about $29/lb (roasted) down there and shipped it home. (the extra fancy)

Let's turn the lights down real low. Everyone hold hands and sway to the music.

No, not really. My Dad's favorite saying was, "Hey, you gonna spend the whole day in there? Other people have to use the bathroom, you know!"

Dood!

Yep, all the time!

Cool!

Glad to know it wasn't one of "those" sayings. A few years ago (when I was leaving my long term employer for another position) I was surprised and somewhat taken aback that I use phrases that are not all that common.

Who knew??!!

The HR director told me he was going to miss my funny sayings the most. Puzzled, I said, "What do you mean, Bob?" He says, "Oh you know, like when you say someone is lazier than a cut cat."

Still puzzled. I reply, "Really?"

Anyway...my family has used that expression my entire life (and mostly my grandmother!). I had never thought about what it really meant - until he told me during my going away celebration. Yeah.... I'm a bit gun shy....

Well, time to read for a while, then off to slumber land.
