The wheels of commerce turn very slowly indeed. Our "fast-track" building permit was put back two weeks because of staff vacations at the city permit office. Lots of gear sitting on the floor, wrapped in plastic-- everything is in except for the big True fridge and the ice maker. With luck we're back on track tomorrow and looking to be done with the build-out and case work by the first week of March... (but hopefully Janet and I will still be able to come up for the Hoffmann party and presentations)

Tony-- the Octane crew rocks again! Congratulations.

Tony, it was cool to meet you this weekend. You make a great judge, too. I can't wait to get back down to the ATL and get another great drink. OCTANE RULES!

Yo Tony Wazzup!? :-)

1 lb big guy! I need 1 lb! I will be in on Sunday late afternoon!

I think I will be in town on Thursday. I will have a friend with me, more than likely, so he is paying!LOL!. He should, shouldn't he? Look at all the fine coffee and marginal people that I will be introducing him to!

Hey Tony! I missed the CCC ATL cupping by minutes last Friday. I showed up at Octane at 10:00 AM, just a little late to hang a ride with you to the training center.

True to Naomi. My last trip to octane and the ATL gave me a sweet latte I can't figure out how to post the picture of.....
