Poor, poor Mr. Espresso.

I like the part where he's like "those drips, those are a real bad sign."

I love the part where he looks and sniffs it about 3 times and then you can see his face go 'oh, what the hell' - then he's rewarded for his impatience.... been there, done that... :lol:

Miguel Meza, formally of Paradise Roasters, recently moved to Hawaii. Last I heard, he was working on a Kona Coffee farm, but evidently he's hoping to launch a new career:

Nice shoes. Think those are for crunching cockroaches in corners? Would have come in handy when I lived in Miami for the damned palmetto bugs - ick!

OK.. I don't know if this is THAT crazy, but it's definitely weird (and AFAIK, there isn't an official "weird stuff from CL" thread). Found on my local Craigslist -- it seems like something important is missing... :lol:
