[ale] totally OT: coffee

[Paul Cartwright]

at least we have Jittery Joe's here in Athens:)
I grind my own beans, make my own coffee, and it is black, no sugar.

> I always chide folks who talk about how coffee tastes.   We true addicts drink it for the reason God intended so the only real requirement is caffeine and plenty of it.
>
> Starbucks annoyed me twice within a week so I make a point of avoiding their shops:
> 1)  Their K-cup package sold in grocery stores is exactly the same dimension as others sell but only has 10 K cups instead of 12.   While it is labeled (on only 1 side) it is not highlighted that they're ripping you off even at the higher price you pay for that package already.
> 2)  I went to a Starbucks and asked for a dark coffee and was told all they had was "blonde".   An organization that can make the most esoteric mixtures of swill in the universe can't make a simple cup of dark coffee on demand?
