Hey Everyone,
I think we should ALL buy Bucky a coffee pot for Christmas. How many do you think she'll get? Either that, or coffee of the month club... (Dad said, "it just keeps coming! Is there anyway to make it STOP".
*ducks thrown spatula*
I always look at that word, meme, the tag for this post, and want to pronounce it "maymay." It seems more amusing that way. Instead of "meem." Meem is boring. Maymay is fun.
And if Rambling gets Bucky a coffee pot I know where Bucky will get the coffee...
What's annoying is I just bought this pot after our old one sprang a leak in the reservoir. The old one was great, and just $20 or so at Wal-Mart. This one was equally cheap at Wal-Mart, but the hot plate part never turns off so the coffee is too cooked to drink after about half an hour. And the spout doesn't pour well.
After answering all those questions, I realized it's not "meem" but rather "me-me" as is me, me, me, me, all I think about is me :)
phew....that was intresting....
