- On my way back from lunch today I saw a woman pushing a stroller filled with grocery bags down the street.
- The Bread Company has whole grain white bread. What the hell is that?
- Literally every man I saw working in Whole Foods today had a beard.

From the mountains of Panama and Ethiopia, to the urban-jungles of Portland and Chicago, journalist Michaele Weissman takes us behind the scenes for a look at the world of third-wave specialty coffee. How did we get to Starbucks, and where we go from here?

You have a beard. I have a beard. You know who else had a beard?

That’s specifically who he meant actually. For probably five of the last eight years I’ve had a beard. (There was a two year gap until recently when I regrew it.)
One of my old bosses was extremely religious. He was even a minister. He was a bit over the top and would often tell me I was going to burn in hell — only half jokingly.
Anyway…actual conversation:
Boss: “I don’t like beards. They’re scary.”
Bill: “Jesus had a beard.”
Boss: {sits right down and goes back to work.}
Bill: “And we’re done here.”

Also Bill, when you did a google image search, was it for “creepy homeless serial killer beard?”

Oh, I assumed he drew that picture.

As you boys will soon come to find out…I’m full of witty little slings. I try to moderate myself online b/c most folks get upset and it’s hard to convey tone, intonation and/or sarcasm via the world wide web.
I am Catholic…and with that said…I like poking at religions. I know that’s bad and everyone is entitled to their beliefs but some of these new fangled things freak me out and my defense mechanism is humor and ridicule. Not very Christian-like, I know…but makes for great beer drinking humor.

I would have responded David Koresh, Ted Kazinsky, and Tom Cruise. Zing!

Well creepy, bearded, homeless serial killers scare me more! Where DID you get that picture, Bill? It actually sort of looks like the Geico cavemen.
