Please ask me how to make a six figure salary in the exciting world of coffee tasting.

All day yesterday and today, Bob and I have been getting letters like this:

You can reach me at 407-xxx-xxxx (Angi) and my Mother (Angie) at 407-xxx-xxxx.


No, you dirty minded folks, it's not what I thought. It's worse:

Note the familiar looking link supplied for those interested in pursuing their six figure cupping career.

That is a collection of machines the Bambi brothers (La Marzocco) have scrapped.

The damage:
-Victoria Arduino Supervat 1, 2, 3 _and_ 4 group
-5(!) Faema Saturno/Nettuno
-At least 4 Marte's
-One Urania
-2 San Marco Lollobrigida
-Al lot of Gaggia Milano's, and one Esportazione
-2 Cimbali Granluce's
-Rancilio Preziosa
And a La Pavoni, 2 La San Marco's and 4 the same at the back that i don't know.
