I think I might be in the market for one of these.

Great video to roll out of bed and watch in the morning. I feel like homer simpson. “Ooohh.. Mr. perkins. Aaaarrgahgagh. Must have caffiene.”

You make the most intimate appliance videos ever.

Call me evil but I picture Adam Curry doing commercials for his Senseo. If any of you listened to early adam curry podcasts back in the day when he was one of the few you’ll know what I’m talking about. Great potential for personal commericialization of videoblogging evilness. I picture we’ll be seeing these intimate videos of how much people love an appliance on the superbowl this year as commercials. THey’ll call it “reality advertising” and hold contests.

Ooooh! Mr. Perkins is my kind of appliance, indeed! That machine –ahem! Sorry, I mean: that little friend of yours is quite the coffee whiz! Sleek, handsome and full of beans!

Abraham – no Fig Leaf coffee here, but now I’ve got an idea for a coffee company!

This is stuff of a strange land and a strange world. YOU coffee drinkers must have your own cult. I just don’t get it. Even though I am almost OLD, I have never drank a cup of coffee in my entire life. Oh…Now wait!! I do have my habits and vices securely in place. I just never could get a cup of java up to my mouth. The smell of coffee is really yucky to me. I even run fast when I am at the mall and a pass by Starbucks. That smell. Yikes!! Arrghhhhhhhhhhhh! Anyway, I do relate in a different way. Thank GOD for Diet Pepsi!!! LOL LOL LOL

I actually answered your question about the notches in the ear of the mother back on the blog. While I was here I also sat and met Mr. Perkins and enjoyed that. Instead of playing the whole thing again, I will just ask if I heard right. Is the coffee named, “Fig Leaf” brand? What a name for coffee. I Love it.

Ha ha, Brook! Now I wish I’d kept the footage in of when I kissed Mr. Perkins!

I’m so sorry to hear about dear Miss Betsy Rancilio – I do hope her rehab goes well and she comes back to you good as ever she was.

I’m going to have to lay in plans against the day Mr. Perkins goes ill. We must have some sort of backup.

Robert, I’ll keep Mr. Perkins warm for you.

Mike, those office girls can’t have him. Mr. Perkins is taken!!

This makes me so sad because ours, which came ALREADY NAMED – not just one name, but two: “Betsy” and “Miss Rancilio” (which I guess means she’s Betsy Rancilio), has been, let’s put it politely, troubled of late. She was perfect. She was our family dreamgirl. The only perfect coffee anywhere – it took years to find her, and then to work with her to get everything just so. Now, she’s “tired”, apparently. Just won’t wake up. Oh she lights up a little when we plug her in, but she just won’t DO anything. We are going to send her to rehab: apparently there are rehabs that will help Miss Rancilios everywhere.

Anyway, Cheryl, this was delightful. Great matter of fact narration too. (“He’s grinding the beans.” !)

I’m waiting for Apple’s new iCoff to come out before I even consider a Mr Perkins.

Even so, I’m mighty jealous of the glorious configuration of your beans. I can smell the aroma from here â€“ or is that just my computer on fire from all these NaVlos I’m subjecting it to?

Anyway, fire up Mr Perkins. I’ll be round in half an hour.

I’m not much of a coffee drinker, but a couple of the girls in the office are drooling over Mr. Perkins. I hear things like,
“…He’s HOT!…”, “He can warm me up anytime”, “I’d love to wake up with Mr. Perkins”.
