- i watch the quality coffee movement from the outside, pressing my nose tightly against the glass until the schnoz runs out, but rarely coming in. i'm determined to find new ways to engage the innoculated masses, transcend insiderism and keep coffee connected to real life, like the way i recently had a fever dream about barista hair. i'm not a gearhead, and don't buy much equipment, choosing instead to work religiously on my barista skills. also, i'm destitute. i provide occasional espresso event catering, where i get to don the holy vestments of the trade, like a man-apron. and i bloviate endlessly about all of the above, throwing in chesterton quotes, random video jokes and spikenard for good measure.
