Probably because coffee has a LOT more caffeine than soda.
Especially his, he fills the filter completely for a regular 10 cup pot. I don't see how he can drink the shit. I've thought about using it to kill the fireants in my yard. :icon26:

not a good sign. time to taper back off the caffeine.
or don't go all day without caffeine..

or taper off caffeine.

I get stress headaches but I drink caffeine regurally so I know it's not withdrawal from that. When i drink tea with a stress headache, it usually mitigates the pain. Tea lessens the effects of my seasonal lower respiratory infection too

Just slow up on it.. Every other day cut your cups by 1 until your down to 1 a day.. kinda like smoking and what not.. :)
[size=75][i]I once had a glass of milk.

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.

I am now sick.

i don't like strong coffee, and besides, nescafe isn't the worst instant brand out there

tea on the other hand i'm more particular about. it has to be darjeeling or english breakfast

earl grey, camomile, herbal muck = :puke:
