Got to wondering...what do you think Mencken is having with his morning brew? Slice of pound cake, perhaps?

Fletch said:Toast! Hmph. Not that I don't enjoy a burnt slice myself, but beer and toast - well, it lacks something. I at least hope he had some liverwurst, or a bit of mild cheese. (Starting the day with cold cuts is a peculiarly German practice, but very filling.)
Warbaby said:I awoke this morning in a somewhat grumpy mood which was not enhanced by my discovery that I was out of coffee. Being a resourceful sort of gentleman and one who is not unwilling to adapt to a less than ideal situation, I decided that I needed a bit of mood adjustment and mixed myself a martini.
I must say that it improved my outlook on the day considerably and I highly recommend it to all those blessed with an adventuresome spirit...
