Worst headache ever was when the coffee I got on vacation one morning was
decaf. Within 2 minutes of getting cup of fully leaded joe, headache was
_gone_. I started cutting back from pots to cups right then.

I now use 1/2 decaf and drink 2 cups (mugs) in the morning. No more. Don't
get between me and my first mug, though. Not like it's out of my hand for
any reason other than a house fire.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain
at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail.
It won't fatten the dog.
- Speech 11/23/1900 Mark Twain
