Why would I?
I'm not an importer of diesel or coffee.


But I can tell the difference from an idiots illegal fantasy and an
ideal that may make a profit.


I'm just looking at the math.

Hey Fred, take a look at these numbers.

HOw wise is it to create a business when the retail coffee market is
tanking. take Starbucks. the just layed off 12,000 jobs and closed 600
stores. Their stock cost ~$40 per share in mid 2006 now trading at
$15.62

Look at the trend at the link below. Its been a down hill slide since
mid 2006. Now why would any one want to go into a business that
depends on people paying 5 ****ing bucks for a coffee?

It dont take a university professor with three degrees, a license, and
a rating to figure out maybe standing on a street corner trying to
sell coffee beans is not such a great idea...............

Oh, but I forgot. The owner and operator of Red Clown was a ignorant
coonass GOM brown water boat driver. I appologize for the redundant
descriptors. We must be kinder to those less fortunate, a 10 grade
education, and a dedicated seat on short bus to coonass success...

PS Fred once again thank you for reading my post. I take that as a
true compliment.
XOXOXO

I could never understand anyone paying that much for a coffee. Can't
understand people paying so much for water, for that matter.

Marketing... fads....

Only a fool like you would pay 5.00 bucks for a cup of coffee.

But 32 cups for 8 bucks sounds like a decent price to pay.

Again you should use your head for more than a resting place for bed
bugs
