Okay, I am guessing you are not much of a coffee drinker yourself or you would know that NO coffee addict drinks instant. Ever. It's caffeine level is pointless to the true coffee drinker. And it tastes like total crap, no matter what the commercials say. And it's not what you get out of those machines you see them use anyway - that's brewed. As for Ian drinking French Vanilla, well, the true coffee addict won't tolerate flavored coffees either, and most of all, doesn't it seem kind of girly? I know the image made me giggle. Finally, Colby's ability to make decent coffee has already been questioned on the show in the one where Don finds Liz Warner drinking tea and questions it, and she answers "I just saw Granger make that coffee."

Wish I'd known all this before writing it. I'm a tea person myself, can't stand coffee. I will however remember these points for future reference.

Thanks for pointing them out.

Charlie + danger = *squee*

Looks like I'm going to get a bashing from this lol (about the coffee). Next time I'll do some consulting, being a tea drinker and all.

Mmmmm. I see that there are coffee lovers talking here about Ian and, of course, coffee. *g

Well that makes me feel a little less like an idiot (about the coffee).

Glad to see you liked it and that you don't think French Vanilla is too girly for the sniper god.

I agree, Irena seriously rocks.

I just woke up. Ian and Coffee are a perfect wake up. :) Sorry I'm cheering for New Zealand even if we just choked the four man rowing.
