I'd rather get hit by a bus on the way to a starbucks rather than taking a sip of the antpiss they serve there. I'm glad to be surrounded by local coffee shops that know how to brew a really good cup.

Don't insult ant piss. It isn't as bad as Starbucks' "coffee"...

Would you say the same for cat sh*t[^]?

Today I learned that some people consume cat sh*t.

Not only consume... they pay a lot of $$$ for it.
If I am not wrong, it actually is one of the most expensive coffees worldide.
I was in Sumatra in a farm of it, and IIRC they wanted 150$ for 500gr.
In Munich you pay over 7€ (in very exclusive coffee shops) for an espresso of it.

Christmas tip:
When you grind those special quality Christmas coffee beans to give yourself a treat: Put a couple cardamom seeds with the coffee beans in the grinder. It should be whole seeds - pre-ground cardamom looses its aroma fast, and the aroma is what you want for your coffee - you shouldn't use so much that you have a "taste" of cardamom.
Some people suggest adding a little cinnamon as well (again: for the aroma, not for the "taste"). My grinder doesn't handle cinnamon bark very well, so I add cinnamon only when making a whole pot, and can put a piece of bark to soak in the pot immediatly after brewing.
Coffee isn't Christmas Coffee unless it has a slight touch of cardamom, and a touch of cinnamon.

At first I thought, "what a brilliant observation!"
then I realised it was merely the reflection of the light from the way I had tilted my [yes, bald] head when I first read it.

I suggest playing Cthulu Carols instead. Way more enjoyable to listen to.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

On Sunday I almost went to the local mall to buy some panadol,
just in time remembered the time of the year.
taking a nap instead: worked a treat.

So I'm about to post the parsing portion of Slang as a code project article. I've decided to do them in a series.
The trouble with the parser is it requires a binaries i built (two to be precise) to be included because it references them in a build step.
Now, my options are:
1. Include the binaries with the source redistributable (i like this idea because it doesn't distract from the parser project while still allowing editing of the master lex file - the code it generates will be generated from that document
2. Forgo the pre build step and just make that portion of the project static, but the tool isn't necessary.
3. Include the source for those tools as part of the solution - i don't like this as they're rather large, and I already produced articles for them. I feel like they would distract.
What's your take?
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.
