The more ancient breeds of horses/ponies will sometimes throwback and have faint stripes on their lower shoulders and legs.

Hey Petra, do you like zebra's?

Good read, thanks.

Great thread Mark, has a nice social feel about it. Kinda reminds me of my days in IRC chat.

I just scored the entire Star Trek Next Gen dvd collection(7 seasons) for $200 on ebay, been waiting months for a bargain to pop up.
Works out to just over $1 per episode... pretty cheap entertainment

I'm chuffed.
Heh, just had to tell someone.

Looking for coffee?

Usually maggots, bacteria the black plague etc. Somebody has to analyse the stool samples taken. It's definately not a morning job thats for sure. I imagine it has a lot to do with my distaste for that very expensive coffee.

So, does Vicks spread under the nose on the top-lip really work?

It contains menthol, camphor, thymol, eucalyptus oil and turpentine so I reckon it's got a good chance of killing most things

Back to the coffee.
Once it's been "harvested" there is still the hard outer shell to be removed, so I reckon there'd be little contamination of the actual bean.

MrB (Simon) · #35 17-04-2009, 01:17 AM

RE: Vicks, have seen it done on TV when Police, etc. have to deal with smelly situations, thought maybe it was "Hollywood".

MrB (Simon) · #36 17-04-2009, 01:18 AM

jjj, what is it supposed to do to the coffee? I've never heard of it.

jjjnettie (Jeanette) · #37 17-04-2009, 01:24 AM

Blowed if I know Simon.

All I know is that there are people out there willing to pay $50 a cup for coffee made from beans that have been through the digestive system of a cat.

The worlds a funny old place isn't it.

It doesn't take away the yuk factor I'm afraid. It may be delicious but not if you know where its come from.

jjjnettie (Jeanette) · #39 17-04-2009, 01:34 AM

I agree.
The process can't have any benefit to the actual coffee. All that happens is that the outer cherry is digested, leaving, as I said before, the raw bean within its husk.

So that leaves the real dilema. What is so exotic about coffee that comes from a cats bum
