    Hi Pete,

    It was a pleasure to met you in Tokyo (and lucky to find a translator to order my drinks). I hope to see you at Copenhagen.

  • Aaron Meza

    hey Pete - are you ready for some fierce competition? This is going to be the best Midwest gathering ever.
  • Fede Cabrera

    Hi Pete,

    You may already know about my venture. I`m starting to recruit world-class trainers & baristas to train the local baristas at the american coffee growing countries.
    The idea is to cover the expenses (air ticket+hotel+food) for a 3 day trip (at least) with sponsor support.
    The venture will start by February 2009, if you`re able to donate a couple of days of your time, to promote the barista profession, please let me know, and I`ll send you the schedule.

    Best regards,
    Federico

  • Alex

    ok, i'll just say it, i hesitated because i was intimidated by your break dancing. robin's too. yet another reason for me to be a PT's groupie!
  • Chris Weber

    When only the best will do, reach for a Schlitz. No, really. I love the stuff. And Stroh's, which is apparently not available in KS. But the real reason for this piracy is to inform you that I am planning a visit to your locale on Friday (the 29th). When will you be in the shop and when would be a good time for me to stop in?
  • Chris Berola

    You smell like alcohol. Have you been drinking?
  • )on Lewis

    I cried when you just told me that.
  • )on Lewis

    Sentimental Kansas boys - I'm not going to be at the USBC this year - we've got a baby on the way - due May 5!

    I'll be rooting you on from home.
  • Jason Calhoon

    Pete,

    Great performance, again. If you live anywhere else, you will definitively be the Barista Champion of that country.
    Hope to meet you again at the WBC.

    Best regards,
    Federico
