coffeefest greenville?
March 6, 2009 – 1:49 amyou know the high-end coffee movement has become a bona fide cultural oddity when traveling latte artist and erstwhile blog acquaintance justin teisl shows up quoted in our local newspaper:
no, this blog had nothing to do with the placement of this story. it came via the chicago tribune’s wire service, and apparently qualifies as vitally interesting to the local demographic. in greenville, south carolina. in march. on the section front. next to st. baldrick and the incontinence ad.

least your paper’s demographic selecting journalists don’t choose to print articles about blue streetlights reducing suicides in Japan. The coffee article related to said coffee-festivities I yearned to attend.

attempts to locate the article from the Des Moines register archives were futile, so I can not post the reference here – but why do central Iowans care about such nonsense? I only cared due to the sheer randominity of the headline on the inside cover of the main section.

funny, andy, because your paper is owned by the same company as my paper. des moines, in fact, is often regarded as a paragon of virtue within the chain.
can’t say we’ve ever run a blue-light-suicide feature here, though.

Well I am glad you clarified how and where that article came from because I was wondering how the Chicago paper had an add trying to get people down to the Carolina’s for bladder problems ROFLOL
