My current one has been used daily for five or seven years.  It gets carried in a tool bag and rolls around the floor a lot and the stains inside are permanently burned in.

I don't have the cup,  I drink it like a bottle.  Some people look disgusted when I do that because it's so beat-up and grody.

(I cut pieces of motorcycle inner tube and slide it over my thermos' for a cover.  It's a better grip and it keeps it from clanging around.)

Worst coffee I ever had was the coffee they made on my ship.  Bitter as hell, over heated, and it could keep you awake for days.

Sometimes,  hotel coffee has that "chunk",  you unexpectedly swallow.

We just pretend it's grounds.  Sure it is.  Must be.

If, unexpectedly, you find yourself being kicked out of a biker (or Black) bar, and they fuss you up,  just look like you are raising your hands in anger!  And mean it!

You might get immediately killed, or, they might laugh and buy you drinks.

There's a fine line, in skinny-guy-life.

I've almost been, attemptedly,  killed by the biggest white, and black, and mehican guy...

In these bars.  It's mostly fuzzy,  I don't remember most of it.

So then,  I usually just run away. 

Even in an enclosed space.

We're really hard to catch.

And then, and then,  the "ninja-throat-punch"  is'nt really a thing.

It's just a thing I do.  I have.

Decades ago,  we (my wife, too) had several years of TKD.

From a guy that has his picture on a lot of magazines.  He was decent.  Their history was established.

So....

being 90lbs,  I'll never hurt,  or deter, anybody.

But I can put my whole body into the, throat, nose hit.  With the heel-palm of my hand.  (I don't do knuckles,  they hurt and break too much)    That gives you enough time to run away.

Or kick in the balls.

We learned that on the first day.

And practiced it,  every day,  for years.  It was on the test.

When we first moved to Pittsburgh, again, (6X times in my life),  I don't know,  it was somewhere in my life,  I punched the wall,  hard,  with my knuckles.

I've done it before,  in my whole life, TX, NC,  put your fist through the drywall,  ten times in a row,  if need be.

In Pitttsburgh,  these old houses have hardwood-slats-and-chicken-wire-with-cement walls,  and thick white paint.  They all do.

We didn't know that.
