1. Grasp coffee pack between thumbs and forefingers.  Pull firmly.
2. Remove coffee grounds that have deposited in your hair.
3. Place coffee filter inside basket.  Note: For two coffee-drinkers,
contact your next door neighbor and obtain their coffee pack.
4. Scrape coffee from available flat surfaces and deposit in coffee filter.
5. Fill coffee cup with tap water.  Note khaki coloring.  Read holiday
cottage brochure that describes khaki-colored water as "a soothing color".
6. Check in-room refrigerator for bottled water.  Note: one ounce bottles of
bourbon may be substituted, but this is not recommended.
7. Pour water into coffee machine.  Note:  If machine makes a zapping sound,
take cover (see 'contact next door neighbor' above).
8. Look at scissors.  Remind self to use scissors for subsequent coffee.
Warning:  If coffee maker smokes longer than five minutes, contact
manufacturer.
9. Go to Starbucks.
