I used to use one of these

Amazon.com: Farberware FCP280 8-Cup Percolator: Home & Kitchen

Makes a killer cup of coffee, but I found the quality of the actual coffee maker wasn't that great. I went through 2 of these things in just a couple of years. I guess since they started making them in China the quality has suffered.

@Mredskins - ive never felt any withdrawls before from caffine before..... hopefully this doesnt change that for me.

@ Matty - I couldnt find any perculators i liked. If my new pot ever breaks maybe ill try that one out.

There's nothing wrong with caffeine in moderation. Coffee has been cited as beneficial in some health areas if any of those studies can actually be trusted.

It's also a healthier alternative to pre-workout supplements that are basically chemicals with caffeine, and just as effective.

So part of the reason i wanted a french press or something like what i got is because i heard the best part of the coffee for you is the oil. Oil will aslo supposedly turn your coffee bitter much faster so thats the major turn off. But if you drink it quick or make personally sized cup the oil is susposed to be good for you.

Unfortunately i dont think my pot allows for anymore oil than a pot that uses a paper filter. So maybe a french press is the only way to get that oil.

We get a 10% cut of sales. It's not much but it helps. Got a check last month for $7, woo-hoo!

Anyone use laptop cooling pads and if so do they work? I got a new gaming laptop and it can get a bit hot. Graphics are amazing and the prices of games are awesome. Sucks that not everything is compatible with the 360 windows controller but thats beside the point. Either way after about 20 to 30 minutes it gets relatively warm. Not blistering hot but seeing as how it's new and I freak out about everything I want the best for my baby.

check out targus pads, easy usb connect, light weight, good quality. you can touch one at a bestbuy before you order it from amazon.

I use a laptop pad, it's extremely cheap, flimsy, makes loud noises when it starts and half the time the fans don't work. I did buy it at Micro Center for 10 bucks though, so that's to be expected. I honestly don't know whether the more expensive models are worth it, but when I got my laptop I felt I needed one because Toshiba's have a rep for overheating.

And you know what the funny thing is? I didn't even know who it was made by but after a quick glance at it and an online search, I found it for 28 bucks at Walmart.com.

PS don't buy this one.

Inland Notebook Cooling Pad: Computers : Walmart.com

And you know what you can't tell from the picture? The usb wire that connects to your laptop is exposed (i actually taped all the excess wire to the back of the pad) on top of the fact that the slightest jolt will cause one of the fans to stop working, or for it to make this loud noise that sounds like something's broken for like 5 minutes.
