The book: Amazon.com: Uncommon Grounds: The History of Coffee and How It Transformed Our World eBook: Mark Pendergrast: Kindle Store

It was very good.

Oh, I've heard of that, and meant to pick it up. So, yes, this was useful, but I forgive you because it was useful to ME.

keep the long posts down Sharon ... keep 'em short

What long posts? Who posts long posts?

I would never post a long post. It was my father once that said "A wise man can say everything he wants to with very few words" and he was correct! It was only last year when I was so very long winded with what I wanted to say in life. People would almost immediately lose interest in my constant droning on. I would go on and on about the most minute inconsequential details in the most mundane possible way until their eyes would gloss over with a film of kind of a milky white indifference... well maybe not milky white... more of a light oil on water appearance... but not oil and water on a warm day, more like oil and water in a puddle of salt water in February up here in the upper Midwest. As I saw the boredom set in I still couldn't stop talking. I would talk and talk and talk, seemingly forever to make what could have been a very short statement. It came to a point where people would simply get up and walk away mid sentence because they had enough of my pointless drivel.
The good news is that I'm over that now. I no longer prattle on endlessly to make my point. Instead, I am concise and quick, able to make the longest of statements with only a few words. Rest assured my friends and colleagues are very grateful for this fact. They no longer get up and walk away mid sentence because of my mindless word wandering. They sit, riveted, on my every statement... sometimes begging me to continue because it was too short. I have held audiences captivated for no time at all whilst I regale them with brief tales that relay my point exactly as I intended it to be received. It sure has been a godsend being able to pare down my thoughts to a mere sentence or two rather than going on and on and on and on... so you're welcome world for all the work I have done, and all the progress I have made in my ability to quickly communicate a point.

Well, it's no postwhoring, but you do get points for "prattle."

I felt my use of it in that syntax to be a bit redundant, but I like words... so there.

Dude, watch your language!

He is. Actually being very polite. He is saying goodbye to those still remaining. It is, however an interesting choice of language, since not too many are familiar with inuktikut on this board. My wife illustrated a book called "Children of the North" which was written in English and Inuktikut. I can't read it, but I do recognize the characters.
