Alright, well now I've got to ask the burning question - if you don't do coffee (I can't believe it!!!), what DO you drink? Are you a tea guy? How do you start your mornings? I wouldn't call myself coffee obsessed by any stretch - I'm 1 cup a day in the morning with the paper just to get me going - but I couldn't imagine not having it in my life completely.

So, like the coffee drinkers of America I do need to start my day with a little caffeine and how I get that has changed over time. In my teens and early 20's I'd have a Coke for breakfast. Post-college that switched to Diet Coke. Somewhere in my 30's I went with green tea, but according to a lab report, that combined with a breakfast of yogurt every morning gave me a kidney stone (worst experience of my life, just about).
A few years ago I switched to a V8 juice drink that has some green tea in it that provides a little caffeine, but less than you'd get from a full cup of coffee.
I once had a pretty bad soda addiction, but now control that with a mini-Diet Dr. Pepper at lunch and sometimes one at dinner, but usually just water.
