Good morning Horde. Grab yourself a beverage and kick back for awhile.

Just remember a couple of the standing rules here.

  2. Be nice to the 'Ettes, remember one carries a shiv.
  3. Running with sharp objects is a voluntary exercise. Choose caution.
  4. Have an enjoyable weekend.

Interesting facts about coffee. You be the judge!

Your Genes Might Determine How Much Coffee You Drink


Coffee is one of the most widely consumed beverages in the world. In 2020, the average American coffee drinker downed more than three cups per day, and Americans overall drank 517 million daily cups. First introduced to America in the mid-17th century, coffee grew in popularity after the Boston Tea Party of 1773, which encouraged patriots to swap over-taxed tea for coffee. In the time since, soldiers have relied on coffee to boost morale overseas, children of U.S. Presidents have founded their own coffee houses, and American coffee brands have expanded across the globe. Can’t get enough coffee? Discover six amazing facts you might not know about this beloved morning beverage.

Romans 8:26-27
26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
