Tomorrow its full steam ahead but there is one more day of freedom.
We do have something to post though. One of the presents Molly (writer/artist) got for Christmas was "The People's Almanac presents the Book of Lists 1977". An odd present for sure but an interesting source of facts from a bygone era without internet. One of the lists is "11 Prominent Coffee Drinkers", which has Johann Sebastian Bach at the top.
"Bach wrote Coffee Cantata, a humorous one-act operetta about a stern father's attempt to check his daughter's indulgence in the coffee habit. From the Cantata: " Betty: "Dear father, don't be so strict! If I can't have my little demitasse of coffee three times a day, I'm just like a dried-up piece of roast goat!""""
Betty must be a programmer. :P
