Okay, I had to share this because I thought it was pretty funny (and interesting at the same time). I was in the bathroom at a restaurant, and this old ad was on the wall. It says:
What Every Young Girl Should Know
Americans drink more coffee than any other beverage except water.
They drink it first of all because they like it. But most people only vaguely realize that coffee sharpens the mind, improves reason and judgement, physical strength and accuracy of movements. These facts are all found in medical literature. And if you are like 97 out of a hundred people, you don’t need worry about sleeping, for the lift you get from coffee lasts only two hours.
So what every young girl ought to know, if she hopes some day to be a good wife, is how to make good coffee—morning, noon and night.
And the rules are simple: Use a heaping tablespoon for every cup, and keep your utensils clean!
(Notice it says, “Coffee Perks You Up!”)
Hmmmm….
