After 48 years of starting out my day with a cup of tea, today i was coerced into having a common mug of coffee.<br />I ran out of tea, i half expected a rapture of biblical episodic mayhem to the begining of my rather routinely dull morning, but nothing happened, absolutely nothing.<br />It was at that captivating moment when i remembered that Cicile B. DeMille had been long dead.

Checked Other. Am a "self starter" no need for any kick start in the am or pick me up during the day. Course I'm only coherent a few hours out of the day. ;) :)

I do just as well without the coffee, so if there's a fresh dark roast I'll have some otherwise I pass. Long as I get my 60mg of dexedrine. ;)

Right now its 5:am thera-flu... :eek: but hopefully that will end soon. :D <br />Used to be coffee 5am to 10pm several pots a day.<br />Now maybe 1-3 cups a week. :eek: <br />Been on a water kick for the last year. Start off with it in the morning and drink about a gallon a day. No reason for any of the changes.

Whatever's in the fridge cold, while waiting on coffee to brew.

Definitely coffee - about 30 oz over the first 2 hours of daylight, very strong, with a little milk, thank you very much.

I buy pure caffeine powder and usually mix it with water. That and I buy Red Bull in bulk at Costco. Maybe that's why I usually stay up 'till 3 or 4 AM. :D

A common mug of coffee......Let's not forget coffee is the drink of this country but tea is the choice for the rest of the world. I forget the numbers but tea is the preffered choice of the masses by far.<br /><br />I drink both...Any time of day. Since I quit smoking though it seems I am drinking more tea than coffee.

Coffee... and I don't smoke. <br />Up at 6, first coffee at 7 and another about 8:30. I'm good with just one... it has to be just right though; a strongish brew, enough cream to make it a medium tan color and enough sugar to taste just a little sweetness. Yummy.

Coffee here! Will drink it all day in the winter time (keeps me warm when working outside) but usually just a cup or two the rest of the year in the mornings and I am up and running.

I pretty much drink coffee non-stop (I breathe a little) 6 - 10 every morning and then I quit cold turkey . . .

3 cups before going to work, then I get a coffee at each McDonalds store that I go in for service. Just love the freebies!

I start my day off with a cup of Tim Hortons coffee and a donut...and two Tylenol #3's, just to loosen the muscles in my back(and to deal with the pain).
