Hi Ben,

Greetings from Argentine ... would you give me some surfing lessons if I make it to Australia?

Regards,
Federico

HEY! I'm alive, just been busy and couldn't log in for some reason. I'm in Bandung and I get to play with a brand new IR Diedrich roaster using awesome Indo coffees.... SO COOL!!!

Hope you are well I'm on skype look up my internet addy.

Hope you are well mate talk soon :)

You work weekends too? Meeting with the editor egh? Not too shabby Ben. Always good to 'Be published'. Was just making new pastry tags myself. Ahh the good life. My day off tomorrow will be filled with lots of press and alot of laminating. So much fun. I have to work sunday, but will have plenty of time for the super bowl. Can't wait for american football to be done, bring on rugby season. Yes, the wallabys are soft and cuddly, but bring on the all blacks. We have to band together to beat the springboks this year. Can't say what I want to say. You dig the rugby?

Just sittin around waiting for peeps to make some yummy coffee. New store, still a little slow. Waz up with you?

hey Benno

I'm with a client in sydney today! Everything that should happen this week all happened today! But, I'm going to the movies tonight, so eventually I'll just walk away!

What are you up to?

Hi Ben- Well the coffee scene is more interesting in Nor Cal then So Cal, but in general Oregon and Washington have a MUCH better ultra hip scene. CA is full of chains, and decent mom and pops. There are a few of us keepin' it real here though. :) Tell me about the australian coffee scene. I have often thought about heading that way.

Hi Ben!
Nice to net meet you. It sounds like you have a wonderful program going in Aussie, I like your line: "keeping the knowledge and info supplied adgenda free".
Will you be making your way to Minnesota for the SCAA show?

hey no prob. im learning on this thing haha

Fellow trainer!

HI Ben,

Sounds cool. Let's keep in touch, and let me know if you have any plans to come to Portland.
