HAR HAR HAR!
Remember when the French (aka cheese-eating surrender-monkeys) refused to support the invasion of Iraq and the yanks went mental and started renaming everything “French” as “Freedom” – “Freedom fries,” “Freedom bread,” “Freedom toast”?
Apparently for a while (and really, it’s not surprising if you accept the above examples) the coffee plunger was known as the “Freedom press.”
Check it out: Boing Boing
Oddly, that idea makes this fact look obscenely normal a la mundanity de boredom. Never mind. Did you know that the Japanese have been known to bathe in coffee grounds fermented with pineapple pulp, for reducing wrinkles and improving their skin?
Don’t chuck those old grounds on the garden (DEFINITELY not down the drain please – don’t worry, you won’t grow a coffee plantation, I promise), stick ‘em in a bath!
This guy walks into a coffee shop and asks the waitress, "How much is the coffee?"
"Coffee is three dollars,” the waitress said.
"How much is a refill?" the man asked.
"Free," said the waitress.
"Then I'll take a refill!"

What can we do in retaliation?
Hmmm, instead of American Chedder, how about War-Mongering Cheddar?
Instead of American Idol, how about Imaginary-WMD Idol?

Bye Bye, Miss World Police Pie,
Drove my Hummer to the Middle East,
But Saddam's bunkers were dry.
And them good ol' Republicans were drinking whiskey and rye...
singing, 'This'll be the year that I get re-elected'
wow, that was so easy...

Although I suspect it might have been more challenging to make it rhyme... just saying!
What IS rye anyway? I suspect one might only be persuaded to drink it when in the line before you had pie.
