When it
comes to marketing, Starbucks is without doubt without equal
Who would
have guessed that dark dingy first location would ever have a sequel?
Who would
have guessed with higher prices and refills another charge,
That it
would grow to many locations with a P/E obscenely large?
Now to
squeeze out more sales, more locations to offer beer and wine
The new 24/7
offices you ever need to leave save until computer off, it's bedtime
Somehow the
idea of happy hour mixed with coffee and moms with soccer kids
Is something
most party lovers in search of bars or taverns would forbid
Hard to
imagine a beer after quitting work without Buffalo Wings and sports on a flat panel HD
Or with the
aroma of coffee and glow of lap top
screen, sipping wine and spreading brie
At least if
you believe in the myth of coffee to sober up to be able to drive
Coffee is
right there for the asking and the checkpoint gauntlet you might survive
One wonders
when the betas expand to growlers to take out
Or early
morning blood Marys to get the hangover shakes out
Colorado may
also be a special place for beer, wine and Buckshigh
Calming down
from a day of stress, watching the 24/7s rushing by.
Only one more idea, just one more thing
Knowing Starbucks, it has to be in the waiting wings
Hope Starbucks has the StarLite Girls with coffee brown eyes and hair
Clearly these will be Starbucks destinations when one has time with friends to share
