Frazz by Jef Mallett for April 27, 2021

I only drink tea. Strong tea. In a LARGE mug…

So about 40 years ago, then?

It’s the lack of those other “things” that made him the man he is today.

His definition of “enjoyed” has been altered.

Time to move on to Postum!

I don’t remember when one cup made me jittery.

The older I get, the less I can tolerate caffeine. Down to one cup of coffee a day now.

REM fan I guess.

Mr. Spaetzle’s coffee became a constant in his life. It is one of his few remaining links to times and memories past. No way is he going to give that up. I’m with him.

I drink mostly dark roast. The darker the roast, the less caffeine.

Mithridates, he died jitter-free.

I can only have one pot a week of real coffee. The rest of the week I’m frustrated with decaf.

I just noticed for the first time that Frazz’s eyebrows are in his hair. What??

When I go in for a physical and they ask about drug use, I always mention Diet Coke.

The 2005 book History of the World in 6 Glasses tells the story of humanity from the Stone Age to the 21st Century through the lens of beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, and cola.

He’s evidently not behaving like a Mormon with the caffeine gulps.

Started drinking it when I was 7 or so, so no jitters for me.
