PRUDES!  New on CNN this morning that Mason County has shut down a recently opened Bikini style coffee shop due to inappropriateness.  As you know, Portland just got its own Bikini Coffee downtown and it opened with much fanfare.  I haven’t been.  I think it is more hype than anything, kinda like if you had Clown Coffee or Vampire Coffee – just something to attract a niche customer base. Also, you can get coffee at Mary’s Club just a few blocks away…

Well, the residents of Belfair, WA (NW of Olympia on the Olympic penisula) don’t want any part of Bikini clad baristas.  If you can, you should watch this CNN video report.  I just have to laugh that everyone is up in arms over a few scantily clad women serving coffee.  In the NW no less.  Shouldn’t they be worried about the quality of the coffee?  Some quotes that made me chuckle:

I feel we are essentially looking at a drive through stripjoint.

[CNN reporter] a location egged by vandals who don’t want sexy baristas in their town.

We’re trying to set an example for our children…

I can’t stop laughing.  Vandals egged the joint?  What kind of vandals do they have in Belfair?  If bikini clad women are essentially a “stripjoint,” what do these parents do when they go to the beach?  Oh, and let’s not forget…its for the children….don’t make me puke.

Thank you Portland for welcoming Bikini Coffee downtown with open arms.
