House Spent About $2M of Taxpayers' Money on Coffee, Pastries

Most of that was probably the Capital Hill Police. :lamo
 
How many White House tours is that?
 
The House cafeterias serve some pretty good freaking meals to be cafeteria food.

Well, not to be too racial, they had a lot of blacks working there when I worked on the Hill and Blacks can cook like Mofo's as far as I am concerned. I'd rather have a soul food meal than a Top Chef meal seven days a week.
 
The tea partiers in Congress have to have their empty carbohydrates. It's what keeps them fat and stupid, the sine qua non of electability in tea party districts.

I may rail against the South all day long, but I do so love Southern food...and nobody, but nobody cooks soul food like the blacks do. That's not racist - nobody can cook Chinese food like the Chinese.
 
Self defeating move (especially for the men working in the government) considering more than 28 cups a week (4 cups a coffee a day) has increases mortality risks from various disorders to 21% for those above 55 years old. It increases mortality risk to 50% for those younger than 55 years old.

This study was made from 43,727 participants aged from 20-87. But their sample may be speaking more about men since they are larger in proportion within the sample (33,900 men compared to 9,827 women).

Having grown up in the MS Delta - and not to be racial at all - I strongly concur. I'll never forget that when we had a used clothing store in Shaw, MS, there was a juke joint across the street called Mama Rose's, and they had the best BBQ ever - it taught me that the best BBQ made you cry, sweat, and smile all at the same time. I live out towards Seattle now, and finding good Southern food is like finding hen's teeth - it just doesn't exist out here.

But I'll never live Down South again - I miss the weather, the land, the food...but it's my fellow whites I can't stand, since most of them would look down their noses at me for having a nonwhite wife.
