In Graydon Saunders’ Commonweal books, the Commonweal sent the Independent Rust out to deal with an invading army. (They wanted to be merciful, so they didn’t send the Independent Blossom or, worse, the Independent Halt.) The invading army didn’t want to be reasonable. Butterflies happened. Lots of butterflies, made of steel. Lots of man-eating steel butterflies. The Independent Rust has a nasty sense of humour. It could have been worse. The Commonweal might have sent Halt, and if the invaders did something silly, like making her spill her tea or drop a stitch in her knitting, they’d have been in real trouble.
My step-father had property that looked over the Shenandoah Valley, view just like that, peaceful until the jets returning to Norfolk NAS went overhead
Thing is….coffee TURNS those “terrors” into butterflies. But then, there’s always the sign in my husband’s office (he’s been in the coffee industry for years) that says, “Drink coffee…do stupid stuff faster.” Yep.

I’m pretty sure that Hammy can keep any possible butterfly revolution under control.

My coffee filled morning is shared with strips like this. What a way to start my day.

Tea is soothing. Coffee isn’t.
