Two tears in a bucket

[weaktwos]

Well, that tears it, folks. I'm no longer in a committed relationship with my coffee pot. I'm in the market for a new one. Any of y'all have any recommendations?

I'd love to know what your favorite coffee machine is.

Maybe I should go for broke and get some barrista-class ...behemoth...

Anyone try those vacuum type makers?

If you find one that doesn't leak half the time, I'd be interested in knowing, too. I love the fact that my coffee pot is stainless and therefore unbreakable (not the machine, just the pot). But it leaks. 75% oof the time I find coffee on the counter as well as in the pot. I have no idea why.

"two tears in a bucket,...." Ha! reminds me of my friend, Nick. He taught me that phrase.

I got that phrase from the book "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil". Which, is a good book(and movie), in my humble opinion. A classic character by the name of Lady Chablis (a transvestite performer) had two very fun quotes.

1) "Two tears in a bucket, motherfuckit"

and
2) "If you like my performance, my name is Lady Chablis. If you don't like my performance, my name is Nancy Reagan and you can kiss my ass ."

I find them both therapeutic. Though be sure to either use your real name when paraphrasing #2 above, or change your name to Lady Chablis.

ha! I read that book and love it.. and Miss Chablis lives in West Columbia, SC, where I lived until I moved to DC in '97. and yes.. I love that phrase.. When I read it in the book it was the first time I'd read it and though it was something Nick made up! ha!
