Cowgirl Barristas!

In the paper today, I read that Seattle (home of coffee apparently) is leading the world in the new marketing phenomenon for coffee (like caffeine needs any help in selling itself)... Lingerie themed stores (including drive-through windows - good for leaning out of). Yes, America now has Cowgirls Espresso, Moka Girls, The Sweet Spot Cafe, Bikini Espresso and Natte Latte. All are already chains of stores.
Here's a quote from Associated Press:
"Candice Law, leaning provocatively out the drive-through window in a black bra that didn't quite cover her shiny purple pasties, and Toni Morgan, wearing a skimpy halter top, see-through red lace panties and chaps, seemed to know every customer.
Most of the customers declined to give their names or be interviewed - "Nobody wants to admit to their wives that they're here," Law says. One who did, a 25-year-old diesel mechanic named Mike West, says he comes every day for the coffee.
"I couldn't care less what they wear," he says."

Indeed.

coffee in Seattle SUCKS!!! it is only considered the home of coffee in the US because Americans don't know coffee for shit. Best coffee is italian, which is exactly what we have here in Sydney - best coffee in the world.

PS coffee in Paris is average, and bad in most of asia.
