Just noticed weasel coffee is being advertised on www.popbitch.com, they're selling it via an ebay store... Weasels eat the berries from the coffee plant and can't digest the beans, so they, uh, pass on through and are gathered up. Possibly by trained monkeys. I think I have had coffee before that was made by passing through something's system.
UPDATE: You can buy it through Amazon too, they say:
Weasel coffee has been eaten and regurgitated by rare Vietnamese weasels!
It's totally safe, totally sterilised and totally delicious.
No weasels were harmed during the making of this coffee).
You can buy more products from Edible there too, including the tea picked by monkeys...

Our coffee machine at work produces coffee that tastes like something (or someone) has enjoyed it before me - I don't think it's rare Vietnamese weasels though, it's more liekly to have been a fat, greasy man.
Bloody password system, I tried to resgister again and it kept telling me I'd put in an invalid email address. Bah.

I'll have a look at the error messages, what it meant to say was "you're already registered with that address, click here for a reminder instead". My Dad had the same trouble, but he gave up... it's annoying to have to do any of this crap at all, maybe I'll look for a captcha thing instead, see if I can just plug it into here... If I was using standard blogging software like Movable Type or something I'd have none of these worries...

If you're troubled with spam comments then you could try something simple that beats the bots, I've seen a lot of people putting in text boxes that simply say "Type orange into this field" and that cures the large proportion of their problems.

I'll give it a go, can randomise the word etc, but the spam bots have obviously learned this forum already, they can do it again. None of the fields have common standard names really. Seen any good Captcha type things that would be quite easy to plug in? That's what I've got to have a look for...
UPDATE: I have FINALLY sorted the "closed thread" thing. The spammers were targetting the same threads all the time and I couldn't figure out how they were replying when I thought I'd shut it, like on popex.
