Coffee Links for the Week September 26, 2011
Monday, September 26, 2011 at 5:02PM Lots about Starbucks today…When you are the world’s biggest coffee company, you’re going to make news.
A Starbucks employee got fired recently after making a video of himself singing about his day at work. Oops. For anyone who has worked as a barista (especially for the big green apron), or any other service industry, there is enough truth in the song to be funny (warning: contains family-unfriendly language). link
Can we just go ahead and label coffee a superbeverage? A study now shows that the drink helps older female smokers avoid depression (but what about younger male non-smokers?) link
To celebrate its 40th anniversary, Starbucks has released a t-shirt with a coffee-stain design that costs $85. Anyone running out to get one? link
A car running on coffee grounds recently set a speed record, reaching 77.5 mph. Looking at the pictures, is that a flux capacitor they’ve got in there? link
Coffee + hard alcohol = Four Loko for the upper class. link
National Coffee Day is coming September 29th. Krispy Kreme is giving away free coffee. link
There are some sick people out there. No question about it. I would be mad as hell if this happened to someone in my family too, and I hope that they nail the sick sonofabi--- who put the camera in a Starbucks restroom. But suing Starbucks for being negligent? That doesn’t make a lot of sense either. link

I guess Starbucks will have to hide cameras in their restrooms so they can spot the bad guys hiding cameras in their restrooms!?!?
