I'd work there.

Topless co-workers must be kinda good for your mood.

There's a chain of bikini coffeeshops on the West Coast, I forget the name right now, but they have Hooters-type girls in skimpy bikinis serving the coffee. I've only been in once, but it was not disappointing!

About a million (23?) years ago, the ship I was on was going to pull in to Ft Lauterdale. Being the bass geek that I have always been, one of my main goals while in port was to try to meet Jaco, because I knew he lived there. Unfortunatly he was killed very shortly before we went there.

So to cheer me up after I found out that the musical hero I'd hoped to meet was no more, one of the guys suggested we go to a place he'd known from when he lived in the area.

It was called "R Doughnuts". It was a topless doughnut shop.

He wasn't kidding. I hope it somehow still exists.

They have a few of the bikini-clad barista coffee shops around here in among the millions of drive through espresso stands we have. The first few made the local news, but not anymore. One just opened a couple blocks from me, called Bikini Girls Coffee.

I don't even know where that is...

but this isn't really newsworthy, we've had a topless doughnut shop for as long as I can remember.

The new bikini girls coffee shop just closed a few minutes ago. It was packed out all day. Mostly big 4x4's and other manly motor vehicles in the drive through all day, no surprise. Whatever works in this economy I guess.

To be honest, the only reason I even started drinking espresso was because of the very attractive young woman working at the stand I drove by everyday. A buddy took me once, and after I saw her, I went by everyday. Wasn't even sure what I was ordering for a long time.

Question

I wonder if they have any, um, special creamers available that you can't get elsewhere? All natural and the like...

That might work out. I got some money recently lol. And yeah I just pop in and out of here every now and then. It's what celebrities should do really. I get some good posts and some bad ones, I start getting my name out there in Off-topic, start making a lot of fail thread and fail posts, disappear, come back, everything's cool. And the best thing is, you can say all that and it still works every time lol.

I've heard of bottomless cups of coffee, but not topless.

Bad news, Bard, it's long gone. That's my hometown, but I was in college at the time. Never did get to go there.
