But I find it quite charming whenever wholesale accounts misspell their coffee producers. Especially if the owners of the business are not from here. Like there is this new Russian cafe that just opend and their sign said "Coffee Vita" I agree. But I find it quite charming whenever wholesale accounts misspell their coffee producers.

And a few of my friends had a similar reaction to his annoyance at people saying acrost or driving slow in the fast line--they would give him that one. But Michael is exactly right. He was a smart kid, and smart things came out of his mouth quite frequently. But also vile things. And instead of brushing these petty annoyances off and accepting that we're all imperfect, he saw only his own superiority. It’s true.

Eric Harris (of Columbine fame) wanted to kill people who used "expresso" for espresso. Thoughts? :) Read something interesting in a Time Magazine article a couple of days ago of another person for whom this was an issue.

If you want to play in the coffee big leagues, you need to bring your A- game. This is my town and espresso is my passion. FWIW, Expresso is a word I define as "awful espresso". :) This is Seattle.

BTW, check out espresso on wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Espresso#cite_note-0 :) MAS, IMO this seems like over-reaction since sign-makers do make mistakes and it does not necessarily reflect on the quality of the product being sold.
