I love coffee and this has me curious to how this tastes.
Want a superior tasting cup of steaming HOT coffee – coffee that’s easy on your stomach yet offers a pure, bold flavor? TIME magazine says, “Caffeine connoisseurs are snapping up cold-brewing systems like the Toddy Coffee Maker.”
Our patented method extracts the coffee bean’s true delicious flavor, creating what The Washington Post calls “the perfect cup of coffee.” According to The Saturday Evening Post, the Toddy system creates “better tasting coffee that is 67 percent less acidic than conventional hot brewed coffee and has a fuller, richer coffee flavor.”

Difficult to believe that people once wore hats almost always outside. And suits for that matter.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Oompa Loompas

Makes about as much sense as P.E.T.A. if you think about it.
Welcome, brothers and sisters, to the homepage for PETOL – People for the Ethical Treatment of Oompa Loompas. Oompa Loompas are a race of people from Loompa Land, which is a tiny country just south of Armenia, bordering the Caspian Sea. Loompa Land, unfortunately, is currently entailed in a horrific ethnic Civil War involving the Horn Swagglers, Rotten Vermicious Kinids, and the Swangdoodles. Of course, with Oompa Loompas generally being a peaceful race of people, they tend to get caught in the middle of the conflict and bear the brunt of the other three ethnicities’ aggressions. The Oompa Loompas were beaten, tortured, and eaten by the other participants in the Great Loompa War until “salvation” came in the form of an English businessman named Willy Wonka.
At first he presents himself as God’s gift to the Oompa Loompa people, giving them the opportunity to escape their war-ravaged and overly dangerous homeland for “greener pastures”. Little did the Oompa Loompas realize that in Wonka talk, “greener pastures” translates directly into “slave labor”. William Wonka had the Oompa Loompas’ collective testicles in a vice grip.
