why can't i leave well enough alone?

i had to do it. i know my colleagues at work have taken illy's medium-roast medium-grind to their hearts, but for some perverse reason i had to test them with a fine pot of cafe la semeuse classique, a coffee famous for its rich, delectable smell.

didn't work. to french-pressed illy their souls belong. . .i dumped a 2/3 pot of semeuse at the end of the day. in these troubled times, such loyalty is well, touching. three weeks ago these people loved starbucks. now they wouldn't go near that stuff even for a free agent contract. . .
