Percolated doughnuts....yummmm
Posted by: Dr Acula | January 26, 2007 at 03:59 PM
No goughnuts for you!
Posted by: Cheesewiz | January 26, 2007 at 03:59 PM
HA! I didn't send this in. I thought about it but figured everyone else in the known universe did too.
Java Jelly Donut, please!!!
Posted by: Siouxie | January 26, 2007 at 04:00 PM
I'm definitely adding thess to my AM meal,
and PM meal.
& probably in between...
Posted by: mm | January 26, 2007 at 04:01 PM
Just what you need after the dubious pizza.
Posted by: Mot the Hoople | January 26, 2007 at 04:01 PM
Mot, and don't forget the recipe for the 'dead dog vomit' mixed drink in the previous posts. might need it after the 'special' pizza and hi-test doughnuts.

Toooo Perky!

I heard about this on the morning radio show coming into work today. Caffein in the coffee & the breakfast food - when this starts up, won't the 826 be a ton of fun then (like it's so civilized now...)
Posted by: estrogen centrale | January 26, 2007 at 04:07 PM
a sugar high AND a caffeine high...we'll need to smoke that pizza to chill.
Posted by: Siouxie | January 26, 2007 at 04:07 PM
So what happens if you wash one of these donuts down with a cup of coffee? My guess is you fly to work!
Posted by: ScooterRocky | January 26, 2007 at 04:07 PM
Now if they could only invent a doughnut that could roll along to my coffee cup and dunk itself, that would really make my mornings
Posted by: Mot the Hoople | January 26, 2007 at 04:08 PM
In the AM, not only will folks be talking on their cell while driving, but reading the newspaper, putting on make up/shaving, doing a hand wash... all at once So much multi-tasking, so little time.
Posted by: estrogen centrale | January 26, 2007 at 04:11 PM
Hey Mot - No worries about the bus.
I got us a double wide since it's the weekend. I also had the seats taken out and couches, papasans, and recliners installed. A flat screen tv (Dave gets the remote - it's his blog)is installed on the back of the driver's seat and opposite the bar.
Everyone on the bus! It's time for happy, er, the early bird special.
Posted by: Meditrina | January 26, 2007 at 04:13 PM
Finally, a worthy companion for my 4-shot latte! I might actually wake up for that first morning class!
Posted by: ASK, the CD | January 26, 2007 at 04:13 PM
What's with the perky woman in the middle, wearing the red? It looks like her front middle tooth groweth a bit too much...maybe she should get that filed down...
Posted by: tropichunt.com guy™ | January 26, 2007 at 04:15 PM
Andy, it's a leftover piece of cuppa-donut.
Posted by: Siouxie | January 26, 2007 at 04:19 PM
Sssssshhhhhh! Med, we don't want non-geezers, greying their hair and faking aches 'n pains just to get on the bus. As it is, the geeks are looking jealous and want to stay around after they wired up the TV.
Posted by: Mot the Hoople | January 26, 2007 at 04:20 PM
Mot- some of us fit into both camps....
Posted by: mm | January 26, 2007 at 04:23 PM
great, now i'm not even in the known universe.
i think if they can get coffee into a bacon cheeseburger, we'd have nature's perfect food.
Posted by: Christobol | January 26, 2007 at 04:23 PM
or buses, as it were. We'll need the high-test donuts for tomorrow morning. But for tonight...
Posted by: mm | January 26, 2007 at 04:25 PM
Point taken mm, point taken
Posted by: Mot the Hoople | January 26, 2007 at 04:28 PM
for tonight, pizza definitely, (Plus that'll give us more gumball ingredients) and beer (both kinds if we invite the pets.) Which wine is correct with pizza, white, or red? Guess it depends on the toppings. What did I miss?
Posted by: mm | January 26, 2007 at 04:31 PM
C-bol, I was probably the last to send in this news item, I don't have the benefit of picking up this kind of item during my morning commute. It was likely a case of the last straw on the camel's back for judi.
Posted by: Mot the Hoople | January 26, 2007 at 04:33 PM
Woke up this mornin, feeling wired
Two hours of sleep but I'm no longer tired
This morn I ate a doughnut with a piece of toast
Whoa, yeah
Someone filled my doughnut with dark French roast
Posted by: Stevie W | January 26, 2007 at 04:35 PM
I think we should wait and get Homer Simpson's input on this before we go into mass production.
He IS the expert.....
Posted by: Clark Kent | January 26, 2007 at 04:39 PM
yummm......
go Stevie!
Posted by: mm | January 26, 2007 at 04:41 PM
I take it everybody's busy packing up to go home over there. Here in SA we are approaching the witching hour and thanks to the coffee, doughnuts and pizza I'm all Argus-eyed and my wife is trying to scrape me off the ceiling, the dogs think it's fun and feel the need to wake the neighborhood. Just a normal friday evening in the Hoople household
Posted by: Mot the Hoople | January 26, 2007 at 04:42 PM
Did someone mention the Early Bird Special? I sure hope it's the meatlof again, because that meatloaf sure is good, with the mashed potatoes and the peas, and oh my goodness, it's just so much food, I can hardly eat my jello, but those young waitresses are so nice they give me a carry-out box so that I can have the rest of it for my lunch the next day, although it's never quite as good as it is on the first day, I wonder why that is, I have the microwave oven and everything which works for so many other things, and where are my glasses?
Posted by: Suzy Q | January 26, 2007 at 04:43 PM
I've seen their show, I can attest they must eat them.
Posted by: Beppie | January 26, 2007 at 04:45 PM
... and the world just got more dangerous for Card carrying Mormons...
Eb (send me a jelly one)

Gosh! Even the thought of Caffienated donuts sends me into a posting frenzy!
EB
Posted by: EB | January 26, 2007 at 04:52 PM
I'm wondering if I'm on the same planet as Beppie and BP. I'm pretty sure Mot's on the same one as I.
Posted by: mm | January 26, 2007 at 05:26 PM
I can't believe noone commented on the naked jogger in TX. Are all the blogsters in Texas accounted for??
Posted by: shellks | January 26, 2007 at 05:44 PM
Hey, no need to worry about the calories-with each donut worth two cups of coffee you'll just jitter them away!
Posted by: artchick | January 26, 2007 at 05:52 PM
they've approached the heavyweight donut companies? I thought all donut shops were heavyweight.
Posted by: shellann | January 26, 2007 at 07:45 PM
This is no breakthrough. Anyone can take this substance which, at room temperature, is a white crystalline solid, and add it to either the dough or the icing -- this is not dramatic, just a new marketing for caffeine.
Posted by: Dr. Doug | January 27, 2007 at 06:35 AM
ka-boing, kaboing off the walls. now we need a cardiologist with us just for the fat in the donuts, and we'll have to bring along a blood pressure monitor and eat a pile of lipitor too. yum. can't wait. will they have to card kids who are buying donuts??? how well did Jolt cola do??? get some sleep, people!
Posted by: queensbee | January 27, 2007 at 08:32 AM
I soooooo want these doughnuts right now. It's just not even fair.
I finally figured out why I got a guest pass to the geezer bus. No, it wasn't me and dad singing along to Ray Stevens, it's just you guys need someone who does CPR. And is skilled in dispensing gumball ingredients. I think I shall pout now. *sniff*

I'm waiting for someone to come up with clear coffee. I love the stuff, but hate staining my teeth. Come on, bloggers, Starbucks is waiting.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | January 27, 2007 at 12:09 PM
I'm pretty sure IV coffee wouldn't stain your teeth. Come on over to my place, Annie, and I'll hook you up.
Right after I murder the evil muchkins making noise outside my bedroom window.
Posted by: Nurse Tammy | January 27, 2007 at 12:15 PM
Thanks, Nurse Tammy, but I'm allergic to needles. I'd take rabid dogs, screaming children and a python before I'd let anyone jab me. It's my main manic frailty. But thanks for the offer!
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | January 27, 2007 at 12:25 PM
Annie, all is not yet lost! There's a caffeine gum I keep for emergencies. It can be found at most truck stops and (I think) at GNC. You get your quick buzz (sublingual route, anyone?) and no coffee stains. Minty fresh, even. I really used it a lot when I was first adjusting to nights. Amazing stuff.
*Wipes munchkin blood off hands*
Posted by: Nurse Tammy | January 27, 2007 at 12:30 PM
Wow, cool - thanks. Maybe some Barry Manilow tunes would frighten the munchkins away?
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | January 27, 2007 at 01:44 PM
Hey, I was not jogging naked, that was just a misunderstanding. I never jog.
Posted by: Beppie | January 27, 2007 at 02:41 PM
Sorry Annie, my earplugs aren't capable of blocking that out enough for me to sleep. And can you imagine the dreams? *shudder* Enjoy your gum!
Posted by: Nurse Tammy | January 27, 2007 at 09:04 PM
Anyone for a little Coffee Stout to help wash down that caffeinated doughnut?
