Is that an accurate percentage in 2003? Per capita wise.

You'd have to contact Timmys and ask but since Hamilton just
amalgamated with Ancaster and a few other areas around its borders
I do not know how accurate the stats Timmies has would be.

Oh my .. A statistical nightmare LOL Happening here as well

Well Met my fellow Tim Enthusiast!!!

How do you do?

If you're from Windsor, we should maybe meet. I live on the other side of
the pond. Of course, if you're not into that kind of thing, then okay, but
I always like to spend face time with the folks that live near me on these
NG's when it works for all parties concerned.

Michigander - well met!

Nice to know that people are so close .. With the size of the world, it's
more unusual to meet someone in your "backyard"

Email works for me for now

Wise choice!

Isn't it interesting we can't talk to the neighbor who lives next to us, but
we have all day to chat with faceless people we don't know anything about.

I talk to my neighbour, not every day but at least once a week.

I'm fine. Thank you very much for asking. :-)

announced in front of God and everybody:


The last time I ventured in -- out of desperation and a need for
caffine -- What I saw was a super automatic machine taking ALL the
skill out of pulling a shot. What stood in front of the machine was a
trained monkey not a Barista.

You know, you're right -- I forgot about those. They started using
those after I worked there. I remember when they were talking about
getting them, and there was a lot of discussion at my store about
control of quality.

Ostensibly, the barista is supposed to be watching the pull and
adjusting the tamp if the shots aren;t correct. But tryjfully, I'll
bet you;re right -- they probably aren't. Starbucks makes their money
by volume, and whenever automation comes into the picture efficiency
goes up and quality goes down.

So, yes ... I'll bet the majority of the time you're getting just what
comes off the machine regardless. I can only hope that they still
educate their staff on the coffee they sell, as well.

Me, I usually drink Torrefazione. I've yet to make that jump to
roasting my own, although there's a guy here in Portland who'll roast
custom blends and deliver that same morning to your house. The stuff's
awesome.

TY

Heh .. If you knew me, you wouldn't say that .. Heh .. Normally you can't
get me to stop talking LOL Admittedly, sometimes people edge away when I get
on a roll .. I just can't shut up. LOL

But email is a buffer - you are safe .. You can also get very close to other
people as well .. I have actually met a few people from online .. One lives
in Hamilton actually .. Another lives in Ottawa .. I've met another from
Tennessee and a few other's I can't recall their location .. But considering
all the people I have actually talked to .. This numbers are miniscule.

As a soon to be newbie.....will starbucks mocha frappacino ever fit in????

My local Frozen Yougert parlor that carries Carbolite makes me a great
Frappuchino with Carbolite, coffee, sugarfee cappuchino powder & ice -
it's great!

We were in Windsor for a wedding a couple of weekends ago. Seems like a
nice city, but I'm not really sure I understand the lure of gambling...

Had a lovely dinner at the Hilton Windsor: mussels in cream sauce,
followed by salmon with grilled veggies. Yum!

PS - Nothing scarier than crossing the border for the first time! *8)

I'm the same way once I get to know a person and am able to feel that
I can trust them.
