The ultimate coffee achiever

Starbuck's cupsI'm addicted to tea, but I've never had any interest in visiting all of the tea shops that I can. But this guy is trying to visit every single Starbucks in the country. So far, he's spent $30,000 on his mission. (And that's just at the first Starbuck's he went to - ba-doom-boom! thank you, I'm here all week!)

He has some rules: he has to consume at least 4 ounces (he gets a lot of free samples), it must be caffeinated, and he will never stop, even if he goes broke. He has worn a Starbucks shirt every single day since October 2001.

I like how the first question explains to him that there are 40 new Starbucks shops opening every single day (though that number is in dispute, it might be less). At that rate, he'll visit his last one around the twelfth of never.

Same with the idiots who travel around the world jsut to visit Hard Rock Cafes.

I would love to go out and visit the world also, but I have two adorable boys that would never allow me to take more than 8 hours away from "motherhood". As much as I have a desire to go out and drink my weight in coffee, I much rather spend my time with my family. You must be very lonely to be willing to do this just for some sort of attention from someone. And as long as you are "pissing away" $30,000....send me some. My kids need new clothes. :)
