HAPPY INTERNATIONAL COFFEE DAY! I have something very special and life-changingly useful for each and every one of you, my 498 Billion Loyal Dedicated Daily Readers. Well, not quite all of you. It's mostly for the 500,000 or so of you who live in the Greater Quad Cities Metropolitan Area. But according to my calculations, that's like 98% of you. So it's pretty close to all. At this juncture, I have to remind you that I'm a Gynecologist, not a Mathematician. Furthermore, I haven't confirmed my calculations with my Math Department. This could be the very first time I've ever been wrong about anything. The Statisticians say it's bound to happen sooner or later. If this is the time, it could be 99% of you or maybe 95% of you who will benefit from this special and life-changingly useful gift. It's a list of the 10 BEST PLACES TO GET COFFEE IN THE QUAD CITIES. It does no good for me, of course, because I don't drink coffee but as usual, this isn't about me. It's all about you. #ENJOYYOURCOFFEE ************** International Coffee Day From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia International Coffee Day (1 October)[1] is an occasion that is used to promote and celebrate coffee as a beverage, with events now occurring in places across the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Coffee_Day ---------------------------------------------- 10 BEST PLACES TO GET COFFEE IN THE QUAD CITIES Connor Kenney Published: September 29, 2021

@xander6464 Seems to me that there’s an awful lot of International days for stuff - is there one for breaking wind?

If there isn't, there should be. Now I'm thinking about what I could write about it, if it does exist.

Yum! I love it and can't drink it anymore--much to my sadness--but my husband drinks my share in addition to his own now

That is a good arrangement. It was always like that for me, too, in every relationship I've ever been in. All the various she's drank enough coffee for both of us.

@divalounger That's very common, too. Even for me. But I always have Diet Coke.

This is a coincidence because that's almost as long as I've not been drinking it.

@kobesbuddy I would have picked tea. I can't drink milk, water or coffee. But I'm really good with tea.

@xander6464 We were poor, so our drinks choices were milk, coffee, tea, or water. I started drinking coffee at 13 years old!
