Amazing. I'm not a coffee drinker but several guys from church are, and they all say Starbucks is way too strong for their tastes. Most them grab coffee at the 7-11 by the church. Regional differences must count for a lot. What's strong in Texas obviously ain't much in New Orleans.
This "agenda" offends me, but not enough to make me stop drinking my daily cups of Starbucks Sumatra. I am addicted. We grind those beans each morning and perk them the old fashioned way. Zoooom! Buzz time.
Aw, come on. Don't sell yourselves short...I know you Texans like to just boil the water in a saucepan over an open fire and throw the ground coffee into it...:)
I'm sorry...I just don't know what to do about this thread other than be flippant. It is too weird. The insidious assualt on values does take place at lower levels, and we all risk being the "Frog in the pan of hot water" (I know...if you go to http://www.snopes.com/critters/wild/frogboil.htm they debunk the frog thing)
But you know what I mean.
I don't drink Starbucks Coffee, just because I don't like it. The cigarette butt taste thing turns me off. Now I have another reason. My wife won't understand, though.
