Finè
Coffee Anyone?
A coffee store in Eau Claire now features a brand of
coffee called Kopi Luwak. It is known as “cat poop cof-
fee” because the beans are harvested from the feces of a
Thailand cat that eats coffee cherries.
After the beans are passed through
the animal’s digestive system, workers
pick the seeds out — by hand — and they
are processed. (Anyone want a job?)
One cup of this stuff will cost you $25
(including tax) and a tin will sell for $60.
Maybe Barbie will want some of this,
but I think I’ll stick with Coke!
Barbie is a Geek?
You can now purchase a Barbie Computer Engineer
Doll. It comes complete with laptop, iPhone and blue-
tooth headset. However, in my opinion, the doll seems a
bit too good looking to be an actual computer engineer.
Also, I wonder if it comes with a pizza
box and a few cans of soda.
Oh well, I guess Barbie really isn’t a
bimbo!

Sorry to be so short this edition, but I have not been feeling well.
Hope I feel better by Christmas!
