[Maine-birds] Re: Sometimes Blunt is Good

Giving up Starbucks' overpriced swill is not a sacrifice in my opinion.
I've been drinking Wicked Joe's Organic Fair Trade Sumatra coffee (available
at the Natural Living Center in Bangor) for almost 2 years now, and it
tastes better than any other coffee I've had (including my previous brew of
choice, Green Mountain). And yes, if you make it yourself it's cheaper
than the lower-quality store-brewed alternatives.
