The latter is the next generation of percolator-type coffee pots and includes an unitentionally funny instruction sheet written in an Italian-to-English version of Engrish:
Fill with cold water the little tank without exceeding the hole of the safety valve.
Let me tell you -- this is the little tank that can. A very rich coffee that is good, good, good.
Got a phone call around 9-ish from my parents-in-law. Still waiting for a call from my own parents. They probably don't think I'm awake yet. 0:-p
UPDATE: Mom called at 10:15. :-) I teased her about my in-laws beating her to the punch.
UPDATE II: Rich has named the coffeepot "Perky." (Most gadgets in our home have their own names.)
UPDATE III: Ahhhh! Perky makes six espresso-sized servings of really strong coffee, which I downed in one sitting this morning! Wow. Boing! Zappo!!!

Happy b-day, Amy. Sorry we aren't around to take you two out to dinner to celebrate.
Sounds like Rich is paying attention as far as getting appropriate gifts. ;) And why am I not surprised that he named it. :D
(Tell the bum that he owes me a phone call).
Thanks, Hunter! Will relay message to said bum. :)
HBD, sounds like you are wired on fancy coffee...does that have any correlation with the number of entries you are popping out today?
Ha! You're probably right, Talia. I should keep that in mind next time I'm grumping about cleaning the kitchen or sumthin'.
Happy Birthday!
