Uncle John, haven’t seen him since the 1976 family reunion!
 
I don't know how much caffeine is too much but I can tell you it isn't 30 ounces of coffee and 80 ounces of Dr Pepper...
Between coffee , energy drink and Mountain Dew I take as much as 700-900mg when at work
 
No I'm finished.
So if you're American before you go into the bathroom and you're American after you walk out of the bathroom, what are you while you're in the bathroom?

What are you when you're in a hurry to get there?

And what about when you're done?

Well, the first coffee I had this morning was "Da Bomb" double caffeinated.

Well I had my pizza but I just got a craving that reminded me of something else I miss from New England, Bill & Bob's Roast Beef. I don't know if they are/were (haven't had one in twenty years so who knows) any in Maine but there are/were a half dozen or so around Boston, Revere, Beverly, Woburn, etc. They were the best roast beef sandwich I've ever had. The only one that came close was Beef Coral back in northern Ohio.

--edit--
The Beverly one was and still is in Salem. I always thought it was Beverly there. Oh well.

I’ve had neither but every year at our local fair they have a stand that sells roast beef sandwiches. They carve it when you order it and dip it in au jus , I get one every year, best roast beef I’ve had.
