Water boils at 212 F at sea level; after that, water becomes steam.
"Boiling" is as hot as water gets (unless you use a pressure cooker)

I like my women like my coffee -- cold and bitter.

My Rankings on coffee:

1) Honey Dew Donuts

2) The diner in the center of my town

3) Dunkin Donuts (weak, watery stuff)

4) Starbucks (bitter and over-priced)

5) Tim H's (roofing tar and varnish)
