Well, scandinavians do tend to complain about the coffee in the states because it's not strong enough. I had a coffee in Connecticut where I could see the bottom of the cup and I was simply SHOCKED

.

In the north of Sweden they put alcohol in the coffee and there's this rule that you keep pouring until you can see the bottom of the cup. And keep in mind that the coffee is VERY strong and black to start with.

Well, the caffeine might alleviate the sleepiness brought on by alcohol... are there lots of wide awake drunks in the north of Sweden?

Haha! My pediatrician when I was a kid had a mug that said 'Have a Ball at the Testicle Festival'.

I know what is missing from the coffee party thread: all our favorite bumper stickers and tee shirt slogans! Shoot, those were good, too. Here's another one to restart us:

When I met my husband, he was wearing a ratty orange tee shirt that had a picture of a telephone pole and a caption that read, "North Dakota State Tree." I said, hey, that's funny. He replied, yes, this is my North Dakota State Tree shirt. When the man slipped a pun into the first ten words of a first conversation, I knew it was love. (He claims we'd met earlier, but I didn't recall the meeting- must not have made any puns.)

Speaking of tee, the Earl Grey is brewed. Cuppa, anyone?

Ok...When I was in college, I had a surfing tshirt that said on the front, "If it swells," Then the back said, "Ride It." Kids do not know what vulgar is. lol

Dear Kutenurse,
There used to be a company called Hart that made ski jumsuits and jackets and things. they had t-Shirts with the slogan,
"Got a Hart on".
Regards,
A'isha

Kutie, that tee shirt deserves a companion tee that reads (front) "what comes up" and back "must come down."

I have always wanted to have a tee shirt made that says, "Naked co-ed litigation: amicus curiae in flagrante delicto."

I know an attorney who has a tee with a shark on it... The firm award to the latest attorney winning a case at trial is the right to display the firm pirhanna in one's office. Years ago, we had a break-in, and the only things stolen were a couple of stereos and the piranna (which I obviously can't spell). We finally bought a new one, but can you imagine the incident report of stolen goods? Get this: to break in, the Evil Doers had to stand on the rickety one inch railing of an ancient fire escape five stories up, push open a window that was a good four feet away, then step out over space onto a four inch ledge and slide through a ten inch opening.
