She said, "Thank you." Wasn't that a nice thing to do?
Aww.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Dave Barry did a hilarious column on either that particular coffee...erm...fetish, or one that was basically the same, but involving another animal. I'll see if I can find it.

Why do people still think kopi luwak coffee is news, I wonder? Is it just that this time of year, orders are up because it's an unusual holiday gift?
Cindy, it was probably Vietnamese Weasel Coffee.

And my point is made:
This column was originally published Nov. 9, 1997.

See how there's two dates there, Jess. I think maybe Barry's column first started getting published (in that paper) in '97. The other date is a March, 2005 one, which seems to match what the Miami Herald has, here: [link]
The Daily News link took forever to load, when I tried it from this page.

No, because I remember reading that exact column in high school. It's an old one.

I know I read it a while ago, but for me a while ago = sometime between last year and my birth.

I know I still lived at home when it was first published, because that's the last time I subscribed to a paper that ran Dave Barry columns.

The Boston Globe magazine (or Barry's syndicator) may have rerun old columns at some point, when Barry was on a break. I know I've known about the poopachino for a while, but have no idea how long.
