Les couldn't say it any better!! I have been onboard another skoolie forum, and over there if you didn't do it their way...you were more or less scorned. That's why I ended up over here, everyone seems to have an open mind and idea's are not trashed because it doesn't fit the mold...

There is no correct or incorrect way to convert these things, everyone has their own idea's, needs, and desires. There may be a few No-No's along the way, and we'll all be glad to point those out as they come to light. But for the most part it's kind of like Booger King.....have it your way!!

How about the Coldstone metaphor? We all start with a blob (of bus, not ice cream in this case) and add our own "mix-ins" from here and there and everywhere.

Wow! I need to get out more! That's what I get for living on an Island I guess.

I DO know where to get a $3 cup of coffee; those espresso stands are on darn near every corner.

I'll have to consider myself lucky on this one, I don't drink much coffee, and would NEVER pay more than a buck for it...!

I am a caffeine junkie. Get it free at work. Only trouble is, if I find myself in a predicament where I can't get my fix, I get dizzy, start drolling and eventually go into a coma.

The stuff's worse than heroin.
