So I'm enjoying my cup of freshly brewed coffee (Dunkin' Donuts Original Blend medium roast drip grind, available at your local grocery store) and reading Joe Powell [1] about this customer v. coffee shop blog war.

It seems some guy got an extra serving of harsh with his non-standard espresso order and blogged about it [2], prompting a response from the coffee shop owner at his blog [3].

Which led to an article about the blowup in the Washington Post [4] and the money quote: "You have to fight blog with blog," Cho said with a laugh.

Which led me to, and I'm not making this up, the Starbucks Gossip blog [5] ("Monitoring America's favorite drug dealer") and this extended discussion of the ghetto-latte' [6].

I need to get out more.
