I have two little girls, and we should learn the sex of the third baby in a week or two.
It’s like a friend of mine told me after my first daughter was born…
With a boy, you only have to worry about one penis. With a girl, you have to worry about all the penises in the world.
I have a daughter and a son with another daughter on the way. It stays with you lingering in the back of your mind a bit. Of course I’m concerned for my sons safety too but I do know that my daughters will have additional concerns.
I drive 50 minutes to work one way to keep us in the safest area possible and will continue to do so. Wife and I have no social media of any kind and do not allow family to post info about our kids online either.

Guy I worked with used to say that the difference between sons and daughters is that with the boy, you only have to worry about one dick.
My experience with BRCC mirrors what others have said with the Black Beard whole bean being the blend I liked best. I wonder if there is some poor dude at Community Coffee's order fulfillment department wondering why his day suddenly got busy.

OK, that's just creepy.

Actually, you ARE the deciding factor in what the gender of your children will be.
She must favor her Momma.
As a former 1980s Peetnik ( I once pulled an espresso for Alfred Peet himself in the Piedmont Ave Oakland shop, and got good marks for it)... you probably won't like it. I've had two different BRCC blends about a year apart, and found them both pretty objectionable in flavor. The Folgers comparison isn't far off.
(By the way, the coffee bar manager for Peets corporate is a friend - his husband and he are both S & W revolver guys. Go figure.)
This dude in TX is bad news and I'm glad he was caught.

I hate to rag on Peet's but their coffee isn't really good either. Maybe it was once better, but now no different than Starbucks.
You are pretty much correct.
@DocGKR has mentioned this himself here.
It's still better than Starbucks, but not by much. Their secret weapons were great Peet family connections with longstanding coffee producers, and roastmaster Jim Reynolds, who is long retired.
A skilled local roaster with good suppliers can outdo them now.
That said, I haven't set foot in one of the original Berkeley/Oakland locations for years now, and might have to eat some of the above words when I do so.
