Obie, do you think we can get Ferlin to put these on all of the stools?

Ferlin would do something with honey bees, instead of cats paws.

You don't need O'o bars in Honoka'a. They have deep soil there.

True that! Or Moos. Got milk?

The cat's paw O'o bars are just for Punatics. Way to heavy to transport a warehouse full to Honoka'a! I'm thinking the old Malama Market might make the perfect showroom.

Edge - Coffee is the first thing in the morning.
Not being a coffee person (ocha wa ii desu ne?) I had to go looking for insight about the related filter choices and dilemmas (hence why I am late to this discussion apparently) and ran across this - https://japanesecoffeeco.com/blogs/japan...ee-filters
It has an wide ranging discussion of coffee filters, their impact on the final flavor of the coffee, and covers some Puna-esque options including a Hemp Cloth Unbleached Reusable Coffee Filter, "If You Care" brand compostable filters, and various reusable metal filters. Even has a discussion on how to make a cup of coffee with "traditional Japanese character" (the Tokugawa Shogunate sighs in sakoku ;)
Figured it might be worth a read for those interested in upping their coffee craft and not just rushing to that first cup like a Shinkansen.

ran across this
Thank you.
Among the links is the Japanese Siphon Coffee Maker. It looks like a chemistry experiment, and requires the same level of attention and skill - - beakers, Bunsen burner…
I have a friend who has one. The coffee is not only delicious, but the technique extracts every molecule of caffeine from the ground beans.

It’s been 50+ years since I first watched Kung Fu starring a Caucasian David Carradine on TV as an Asian man, but when it comes to coffee I still have not fully absorbed the Master’s admonition “patience Grasshopper, patience.”

As for knowing or not knowing..
You know nothing about so much.. and yet you use every opportunity.. including making stuff up and regurgitating verbatim AI slop.. to make disparaging remarks about other human beings.. over and over.. wtf is Dude "bloviating" about?
Does saying Dude is "bloviating" in all caps and bold make you somehow feel good? Is this how your brain works.. be an asshole and feel all warm and fuzzy for breakfast?
Why not just stick to what you actually do know and let others say their piece without your continued effort to spit on them when they do? Do you actually know anything? At all? Or are you really so lonely.. so unhappy.. so empty.. with your own life that you need to fill these pages with reams of posts making derogatory statements about everyone? Spending your days and nights here posting nonsense in order to dominate every single thread? Is that really all you are? All you have? All you do?
Don't you have a life other than siting at your computer hitting reload all day minute by minute and jumping on and responding to every post made by everyone here with your nonsense? Will you ever take a break and let others participate in peace? Or is this really just HiloJulieWeb now?

MYMANAO BABBLES HIS USUAL NONSENSE:
I'd say the issue MM is that since you lost your life long sparring partner here on PunaWeb, I have become your focal point of your immaturity and incapability to be a decent human being. You talk a mile long but can't even walk a step at being decent.
This is PunaWeb, not HiloJulieWeb as you so constantly try to make it all about because, as I see it the core issue is you are simply chagrinned at the prospect that I am impeding on your decades long attempts at trying to make PunaWeb the MyManaoetalWeb.
To quote you:
OMG, GROW UP ALREADY! Become the person you desire to make everyone else be.
ETA: I am impressed that you actually made a post without using the "F" word!
ANOTHER ETA: I thought more about your post above, and all I can add, is get off your "high horse" of implied "moral superiority" with respect to my posts. In your very first post to me, you referred to me as a bitch and a dog. In over 3 years you have called me the vilest sexually degrading names, ridiculed my profession, claimed I am nothing more than poor low wage-earning piece of trailer trash and live in a ghetto. Repeatedly. Most threads, you ignore anything said by most other posters, nor answer legitimate questions asked of you by anyone, and dial right into me posting, never adding to the thread contract, just insult after insult after insult, and most with disgusting filthy language one can imagine. It's really not what I post at all that bothers you. It just that I post.
Sorry, MM, you have zero credibility, much less, any possible right to profess how any poster conducts themselves on PunaWeb. I don't think you have one moral bone in your body nor one ounce of moral fiber in your being.

Julie:
"I'd also say the other one mentioned on another thread with Bill Gates is worth the watch, sans any grossly inappropriate and insensitive physical disability comments about the guest speaker"
Gates obviously doesn't have a physical disability. Julie is the one being inappropriate in this forum with consistent attacks and insults leveled on other members, often completely unwarranted.

DF SAYS INCORRECT THINGS (AGAIN)
Gates obviously doesn't have a physical disability. Julie is the one being inappropriate in this forum with consistent attacks and insults leveled on other members, often completely unwarranted.
Let me stop you right there DF. You simply confuse me replying to posters, especially yourself, when posts are made with either offensive comments or, posts made that are just merely one's opinion but then try to state them as fact.
In this case about Bill Gates, you did both.
You made a completely inappropriate offensive statement about Bill, saying, "I was slightly distracted by his consistent fidgeting when the video showed his body from the side and figured he was either overcaffeinated or suffering from an essential tremor." AI says it's the behavioral habit "stimming". Gates considers himself to be autistic.
No matter how you want to slice it or dice it - its offensive. Does living in this world with anyone with autism distract you?
Then for you to say " Gates obviously doesn't have a physical disability" again, shows you don't know what autism is, nor did you even spend a few minutes informing yourself, or even reading what Gates himself has said about it.

Is Autism Considered a Disability?
Sorry you find that when I refute something that is posted that is offensive or just wrong (or in some cases, just made up) as me being inappropriate or calling you names.
Maybe try be a little more "decent?" And then, what was your point in making that comment in the first place? How is it relevant to anything?
