Coffee and Discussions on Safety, Philosophy, Religion, and Art

What do you want to discuss over a good cup of coffee? Here is where you can do that. But sometimes an old crusty master sergeant and professor wants to have his way.

Mile High Buzz | Denver Coffee House Blog

Here is a web site/blog that identifies the coffee shops in Denver: http://denvercoffee.blogspot.com/

Jobs

I receive notices for jobs quite a bit. One of the concerns is getting the info out. So with that in mind I have added a blog that is strictly for job announcements. See http://safetyjobs.blogspot.com/

The coffee press

I have been looking at this mobile coffee press @ Starbucks. It looks like a travel mug but has the plunger in it. Well, I had to get it. Works great. Now if I can figure out what to do with the mess. Oh, well.
What makes the coffee press a good way to make coffee? Gee whiz, I do not know. The coffee tastes different. What else? Maybe the power of making coffee in the European sense of the world. Uhm... I guess I need to do some research.

Just a side note: I added a clock to the the side bar. I just have to remember to change the time come the end of the month to make sure I have it correct. Should I make that change at midnight or can I wait until Monday?
