      The Morning Rush:
I’m always on the lookout for a better cup of coffee… the stronger the better. In the past decade (what I call the Starbuck’s Decade), the whole idea of coffee has changed dramatically. No longer is the morning cuppa Joe merely a 12 volt battery for your nervous system and a kick starter to your day, it’s become a morning ritual with a cacophony of flavors. After a few experimental sips of this or that blend and additive, I’ve gone back to thick black and bitter as my mainstay.
I’ve reverted to the old tried and true method of making “Cowboy Coffee or Campfire Coffee” with one slight alteration. Instead of a percolator use a pot with coffee dumped in by the tried and true method of measure… the hand full. Boil the hell out of it with a pinch of salt to keep the acid down. When it has the consistency of driveway sealer, strain it through a pair of pantyhose and enjoy.

Ladies, it would be advisable to vacate the pantyhose before pouring the coffee through.
