17. That's good. I had to quit coffee because the caffeine dries my mouth.

I have not had coffee or tea since late February. I haven't had chocolate since then too.

I was drinking four cups of coffee, and a couple cups of green or black tea.

BTW, I used to smoke 3 packs of cigarettes a day. I got sick and decided to go cold turkey. I piggybacked the withdrawal misery on the bad cold misery. It worked. That was in 1973.
