Coffee = Blogger Warp Plasma
In a recent post about the pros and cons of Coffee over on Healthacker, Tobias linked to a great article by Bill Nadrazky which got me thinking…
As a blogger, how would I survive without coffee? Would the blogosphere even exist without caffine?
To me, coffee is to blogging what smoking joints and popping acid was to the porn and music industries back in the 60’s and 70’s - it amps up a bloggers creativity/energy level to a point where even the ugliest and silliest stuff seems worth doing or getting passionate about.
Think about it. How would the blogosphere have evolved had most bloggers not been coffee drinkers? Imagine how empty that little ‘write’ window would have looked, and stayed, for millions of people.
As one of my hero’s, Capt. Janeway from the sci-fi series, Star Trek Voyager, once said - “Coffee. The best damn organic suspension in the galaxy.“

Without coffee, I’d be unable to blog until after sunset when I switch to alcohol
I do usually get a big steaming cup of coffee before starting to blog (lately, Don Francisco’s Columbian Supremo - worth the hassle of mail order!).
Now as fas as addictions go, and yes I AM addicted — no joke, it’s not a particularly bad addiction . . .
