My God, this could be worse then Orson Welles "War of the World" in 1938.

Some fled their homes; others merely were terrified. What will the left do without some Star Bucks stores?

The pain, no Breakfast blend, the pain no Starbucks Doubleshot™ ,the pain no Ice Beverage,My GOD no Sumatra -Decaf.

Have faith , Barack will find a way to save your suffering. We conservatives are also there for you in your time of need. There should be a bipartisan commission called to look into this! Where is the outrage?

Stand away from your latte machine, sit down and call your local Dunkin' Donut. Proceed to ride your bicycle or take nearest city transportation vehicle ( it's called a bus) to purchase a cheaper but excellent cup of real coffee.

Have faith, change you can believe in, " I'm asking you to believe! Not just in my ability to bring about real change in specialty coffee.............I'm asking you to believe in yours.

Just in case here is Star Bucks link to salivate your taste buds.
