Missing Link Part Deux
I had some great suggestions for a music storage site. One was packupload, but my anti-virus software stopped me and called it a malicious site so I backed-off. The best for now was the feed itself where the files are listed and can be downloaded: http://keepthecoffeecoming.wordpress.com/feed/
There is an alternative but I have no idea how to do it. This blog: http://a45blog.blogspot.com/ posts the link directly on the page. I am trying to find out how that is done; otherwise, I’m still on the hunt.

This wikipedia-list might help to choose a host-site?

Just checking some blogs with external links …:
divshare.com (your a45-link and others)
opendrive.com , zippyshare.com , kiwi6.com ,
sendspace.com , rapidshare.com , boxcn.net,
mediafire, soundcloud.com , filepost.com ,
filefactory.com , depositfiles.com
But to avoid problems…
Provided DL-links are great, but necessary?

Birgit,
One of the blogs I visit regularly had a notice which said many blogs posting music had their Mediafire accounts closed which is exactly what happened to me.
Thanks so much for the leg work on file sharing sites. I will check them out to see which will work.
I like offering the DL for the music I play so people can enjoy it themselves whenever, but if it meant losing the blog, I’d stop.

Meanwhile a workaround for older (not in feed) files:
The file-address can be found in the html-source-code
of the correlating blog page.
Open html-source, search, copy, paste in browser, save, ready.
But I have to admit, a single link click&save is more comfortable 😉

Thanks, Birgit
You’re right about it being much easier to click and save-I’m working on that!

For myself…
I like the old pictures, your stories, but I don’t really listen to the music (many songs I already have at home) and rarely copy the songs. But I can understand people wanting to dowload the songs. I think the most important thing is to keep Coffee alive.

Thanks, Mario
I am very touched by your words about keeping Coffee alive. They have made my night!

I know I don’t get by often, but I think I’m starting to do better as I realize that I’m getting pretty much bored with this retired deal without having a car or much to do besides waiting around for replies to applications.
I’m with Mario. Your blogs have connected me again with my years before I enlisted, I was almost 18 at the time, and well we are both familiar with what was happening then. The times were so much different then than now. And I hope that a portion of them will come back.
I appreciate all your efforts and there are many of us who do. I hope you continue with your writing for a very long time to come.

Just to add that after I read your blog(s) I am often inspired to post one or two myself. No, I do my own and sometimes connected with what you’ve written, but often on other subjects from my past also.. LOL

Carl,
Never thought of myself as an inspiration before! Thank you!!!

Thamk you so very much, Carl. I love to write and Coffee has been great fun for me as it also conjures memories thought long lost. I get to relive the best parts of my childhood and share with many who have almost the exact same childhood memories. I too hope I’ll writing for a long time!

Carl is not alone. I have my own place, inspired by Coffee. It’s in French.

What’s the link to your place, Carl ?

Mario,
I wish my French was better. I love the picture of the little boy in the tub. You?
Tom Waits-couldn’t get any better than that!
There is a link to Carl’s blog to the right: Mt C’s Place

Yes, the little boy is me. I wrote : “It stills looks like me because the coffee is not very far.” I choose the Tom Waits song because it’s the only one I know with my name in it.
You don’t have to read : just listen to the music. Most of the time, they’re in French and related to what I wrote.

Thanks, Mario, I definitely will drop by to listen.
You were a cute baby!
