    Vintage Coffee Makers

    I use a French Press and agree it's better than drip, but it lacks the romance and quirkiness of a percolator. I think I want to hear my coffee being brewed. Plus, nostalgia sometimes adds nice flavor. :)

    Vintage Coffee Makers

    I regret starting this. I am now fearing being outbid on vintage percolators by FLers. :eusa_doh: But otherwise, my pleasure in bringing up good old-fashioned coffee goodness!

    Vintage Coffee Makers

    As a child I used to love when my grandmother turned on her percolator- I liked the sounds and to watch the coffee swish around through the top handle (it was clear while the body was metal like the one pictured above.) My mother once played a dirty trick on my father. She made him Sanka one...

    Vintage Coffee Makers

    Anyone use a vintage coffee percolator? I'm seeing some nice looking vintage percolators on ebay. Does anyone use one and if so, how does the coffee taste compared to an automatic drip or French press?

    Death

    I'm sorry about your grandmother. I was very close with mine and miss her very much. I do feel good knowing I was with her in the hospital during her final days. You will have that comfort.

    News: Whatever happened to "loose lips sink ships"?

    One other thing. from the article: "A Pentagon official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Russia also offered the missile to Iran, although there's no evidence a sale has gone through. In Iranian hands, the Sizzler could challenge the ability of the U.S. Navy to keep open the Strait...

    News: Whatever happened to "loose lips sink ships"?

    I don't trust that all terrorists have been identified and that all terrorists, present, future or wannabe have access to this kind of information, but then again, why would they have to do any work to find it when the media feeds it to them?

    News: Whatever happened to "loose lips sink ships"?

    There was a time when the most innocent of letters home (V-mail) had to be read and approved by a censor before it was allowed to be sent. I think something like whether or not our defense system is effective should not be considered casual knowledge in the realm of hush hush gossip. It should...

    News: Whatever happened to "loose lips sink ships"?

    I was just reading this in the news: March 23 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. Navy, after nearly six years of warnings from Pentagon testers, still lacks a plan for defending aircraft carriers against a supersonic Russian-built missile, according to current and former officials and Defense Department...

    I own a copy of "Finding Dorothy." A very fascinating read.

    Death

    I almost started a similar thread because I, too, have been grieving the loss of some people and also pets. I also just wrote a long response and deleted it. All I want to really say is I am sorry for your losses, but I am so very glad that you reached out to others. I'm also glad that you...

    I mentioned in another thread that I love Harrison Fisher. He illustrated the cover of Cosmo from the early 20th Century through the 1930's amongst many other things. Sorry, no pics handy to post.
