I usually try to avoid the sensational. Things like “Nescafe Turned My Child Into a Wolfboy!”, or “Starbucks Bankrupted My Family” (OK, that could happen). But this one is just too bizarre not to mention; from the We Report, You Decide people:
Topless Coffee Shop Proposed for Small Maine Town
I can’t even think what to say about this. Except, maybe, I wonder where they get their coffee? Somehow I don’t think this one is consistent with our Brand Promise.
Thanks to Steve for alerting us to this important, breaking news!


Ugh, now I just gave traffic to Fox News.
This business concept fills me with despair.
I’m glad your “gimmick” is superior coffee.
See what poor quality coffee is driving America to (if the coffee isn’t getting you going in the morning, the waitresses will).
They wouldn’t get ME going, nor at least 50% of the U.S. population. This business plan is flawed and, hopefully, doomed.
Reminds me of a ZZ Top song…sort of. I’m concerned that the demographics of rural New England might not provide the wait-staff talent pool necessary for this to fly. I wouldn’t doom anyone’s business to failure; rather, let’s leave it to market dynamics to decide. But, the admixture of Muddy Dog Coffee and the quality adult-entertainment talent of Atlanta might be a winning combination. Jim, I will call you.
