Observations on the world and its inhabitants
No – this is not about mania caused by coffee. You spotted some words and something jumped into your conscious mind, driven by the Labyrinth of your unconscious! This post is about the cost of coffee. In a previous post I am so cheap, I made some calculations based on price of a cup at ...
Most people want to know what’s the best mobile (cell) phone to buy. I often hear questions (not necessarily to me) like, “What’s the best brand?” or “What works best?” Those sorts of questions are like asking “What’s the best restaurant or food?” Again – how would I know.
