But my favorite place is propped up in bed with the laptop in my lap, coffee on the bedside table, and my dog Smokey curled up at my side. I enjoy his company.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10390386422182379201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-4779072568095142902011-04-21T11:17:59.397-04:002011-04-21T11:17:59.397-04:00Everyone should have a favorite coffee shop.

I like coffee shops that are big enough to accommodate many folks working or socializing or reading or . . . heavens! . . . drinking coffee. I drink lots of coffee and, like you, I like my anonymity. I also like networking in places like this, but now that I am retired, I ask myself what objective do I have in networking? None.

They are the by-product of the old general store idea where one could gather round the pot-belly stove and enjoy the warmth of friendship, talk shop, play checkers or chess, read or just make observations. -- barbaraFolkways Note Bookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07168881905408345126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-14715605211098908202011-04-20T14:44:46.128-04:002011-04-20T14:44:46.128-04:00By the way, I really like your picture!By the way, I really like your picture!VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10186211344492845052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-2514452804881709902011-04-20T14:43:33.963-04:002011-04-20T14:43:33.963-04:00I like and always pursue anonymity, it is part of ...I like and always pursue anonymity, it is part of a quiet and relaxed life and gives plenty of opportunities to get nice pictures unnoticed.VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10186211344492845052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-77944346877293814512011-04-20T14:29:24.808-04:002011-04-20T14:29:24.808-04:00I also like those kinds of moments; But for a ques...I also like those kinds of moments; But for a question of time, I can live them only during holidays, which makes them even more precious..Malysshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08285965495493508425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-806671613875975371.post-89371956096498537762011-04-20T14:24:03.414-04:002011-04-20T14:24:03.414-04:00I drink way too much coffee, but it's usually ...I drink way too much coffee, but it's usually at home or on the go.
