BULLETPROOF COFFEE.........

gazing into these fat globules, I likened them, imaginarily, to clusters of Universes as 'seen' by the next generation of Space Telescopes.....a relatively long-distance view through a hair-thin 'straw' of a trillion trillionth of the 'Big Picture' at celestial manifestations of Matter that have ceased to exist...billions of years before we 'see' them.......



.....made with the heavy cream 'plug' at the top of non-homogenized high-fat milk......to oil some creaking joints ....or.......to 'up' waist size? The portable Sharper Image 'Step-master' should insure the first.....sitting in a chair on a foam 'ass pillow' would insure the second......after 'jolting' up on the java, I spent ten minutes on the cardio-stepmaster device.....listening to some strict-time Nickyi Minaj pop-junk...that I wanted to 'hurry up and get THAT over with'........and burn off enough fat calories to, guilt-free, wolf down the chocolate-covered, custard-filled eclair from an Art Nouveau Limoges plate (rationalizing this as an "Aesthetic Endeavor" rather than "Glutt Session".....[well...I NEVER eat 'buttered' popcorn....logic] calling to my taste buds, 'eat me....eat me!'....Hmmm,..why is Grandmother's ancient waffle iron drawing my attention as I descend the basement stairs to check the 'other fridge' for rum-raisin iced cream? There's always the abandoned, dusty NordicTrack, languishing in the garage with the two dusty/rusty bicycles... .

    Coffee was once believed to be an unhealthy (and possibly dangerous) indulgence, but newer research suggests it actually has health benefits that could extend your life. Researchers have found that people who drink moderate amounts of coffee — about two to five cups — have lower risks of developing Type 2 diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, heart disease, and some cancers. Both regular and decaf coffee offer these perks; it’s not the caffeine that helps, but likely the polyphenols, a plant compound found in coffee that works as an antioxidant.

    almost 300 years ago, Johann Sebastian Bach composed and played his ten movement 'ode to coffee', "Schweigt stille, plaudert nicht" (“Be Still, Stop Chattering”), about an over-caffeinated father...humorously, admonishing his caffeine-addicted daughter about her 'coffee habit'......as the Java Habit began to cover the globe...replacing 'tea addiction'...."Get thee to a Coffee House, young lady!.....There, you may drink....and smoke imported Virginia Tobacco......out of the view of the Righteous Public's 'holier-than-thou' eyes!....
