You also deserve a plug nickel for every time you screw up a member's username. The mods should put you in the doodoo for your childish habit. No, I am not serious. I just gotta be jokin'.
Hope this helps,

Kopi luwak,
also known as civet coffee, is a coffee that consists of partially digested coffee cherries, which have been eaten and defecated by the Asian palm civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus). The cherries are fermented as they pass through a civet's intestines, and after being defecated with other fecal matter, they are collected.[1] Asian palm civets are increasingly caught in the wild and traded for this purpose

Re: You gotta be joking
With the threat of Dock Workers going on strike in the USA and the chance of certain items going in short supply, what was the number one item that was on everyone's list?
Toilet paper
Realize that 99% of toilet paper is manufactured in the United States.
Now with that information how can you leave the responsibility of electing a responsible President with the voters.

Items left on London's subway
On an average day, 1,000 items flood into the office: endless reams of umbrellas, hats, scarves and electronic equipment.
But lining the walls there are also dentures, breast implants, Arsenal memorabilia and a giant gorilla dressed in a brightly coloured Hawaiian shirt.

RED TAPE
This idiom is said to have originated with individual Charles V of Spain in the 16 th century. He started to bind his ‘must do’ paperwork with red tape to separate them from the more mundane documents that were tied up with plain string. This was supposedly to accelerate his paperwork through the correct channels of officialdom.

WW2
Doolittle bombers
Notably, the tail guns on the aircraft were removed, but in an effort to try and fool Japanese pilots into thinking they were still equipped, they were replaced with broomstick handles that were painted black. They actually looked like tail guns, as long as the enemy didn’t fly too close.

TOILET PAPER
Although paper had been known as a wrapping and padding material in China since the 2nd century BC, a reference to the use of toilet paper dates back as early as c. 589 when the scholar-official Yan Zhitui (531–591) wrote:
Paper on which there are quotations or commentaries from the Five Classics or the names of sages, I dare not use for toilet purposes.

Steam fog horn (1853/1854)
Conceived by Scottish-born Canadian Robert Foulis in either 1853 or 1854, the first steam-powered fog horn was installed on New Brunswick's Partridge Island in 1859.
Foulis was inspired to create the warning device after reading about a shipwreck off the Newfoundland coast. His invention has undoubtedly saved an untold number of lives around the world.

Television
Scottish inventor John Logie Baird introduced the TV to the world in 1926, attracting sceptics from the start. When Baird turned up at UK newspaper the Daily Express' offices to showcase his creation, the newspaper's editor ordered a staff member to “go down to reception and get rid of the lunatic... He says he's got a machine for seeing by wireless. Watch him – he may have a razor on him".
That same year radio pioneer Lee DeForest judged TV to be “commercially and financially... an impossibility”.
In 1939 the New York Times stressed that "TV will never be a serious competitor for radio because people must sit and keep their eyes glued on a screen; the average American family hasn't time for it”.
20th Century Fox boss Darryl Zanuck claimed in 1946 that “TV won't be able to hold on to any market it captures after the first six months. People will soon get tired of staring at a plywood box every night." And in 1948 BBC radio exec Mary Somerville called the technology “a flash in the pan".
