A New Meaning To The Term "Buzz." Well, No, Actually, Just Another Meaning.
You know what, let's take a break here a minute and think this thing through: BlogPulse's no. 32 link today is about a man on a Quixotic mission to buy a cup of coffee at every corporate-owned Starbucks in the world. That's almost 6,000 stores; he's been at it for about 10 years. We've been thinking about this awhile and we're torn by contrary impulses to lambaste the guy, who calls himself Winter (and only that, as he testily explains on his site) and to profess a sort of admiration for him. Con: His quest seems stupid because the whole purpose of a chain coffeeshop is that they're all effectively identical -- corporate food-service exists to homogenize and streamline products, customers' experiences, etc. Not only that, all that coffee will scour out his insides. Pro: He is on the road all the time, a shiftless, rootless wanderer who, as this blogger points out, can never succeed because new stores are opening faster than he can visit the existing ones. There's something appealingly American about that, isn't there? People don't seem to agree that this guy's worth Whitmanizing, though: "Seeing that many different Starbucks would have to be interesting-- I just have no idea why anyone would want to go out of their way to do it." Caffine-induced madness?
