Hit Coffee is the story of Will Truman (trumwill), a southern transplant in the mountain west with an IT background who bides his time substitute teaching while his wife brings home the bacon. This site is a collection of reflections on the goings-on in his life and in the world around him. You will probably be relieved to know that he does not generally refer to himself in the third-person except when he's writing short bios on his web page.
Greetings from Callie, Arapaho, a red town in a red state known for growing red meat. And from Redstone, Arapaho (Aw-RAH-pah-hoe), a blue city with blue collar roots that's been feeling blue for quite some time.
Nothing written on this site should be taken as strictly true, though if the author were making it all up rest assured the main character and his life would be a lot less unremarkable.
This website is maintained by Guy Webster (web), who also contributes from time to time. Web hails from the midwest and currently lives in Truman's home city of Colosse, Delosa. He works as a utility IT person at Southern Tech University, their alma mater.
Also contributing is Sheila Tone (stone) a West Coaster, breeder, and lawyer who has probably hooked up with some loser just like you and sees through your whole pathetic little act.
If you’re like me, you wonder about various things.
Things such as… “I wonder if Ramen goes bad”
Or “How long have we had this Ramen?”
Or “That little label thing that says 121805SB couldn’t possibly be referring to Sell By December 18, 2005, could it?”
If you’re like me and you wonder about these things, the following answers come up in the form of a day of burped-up pasta and other particles:
Yes.
Roughly three years.
It could indeed.

Hostess Twinkies are said to remain edible for months and months despite being packaged with relatively short sell-by dates. I’m not quite sure I’m brave enough to try any sort of experiment, however.

Haven’t you moved since then?
We actually are just finishing a box of ramen that we’ve had since Jan. 2007.

I’ve moved twice since then. We brought it with us both times.
