I mean, really. That’s a bit out-of-bounds, isn’t it? Well we’re calling Johnny Cochran, just to be safe.

Dead? Oh hamburgers.

    I call fake.

  2. Jamison says:

    ROFL… I love the inserted alternating paragraphs. Take them out and it’s a standard form letter. Add them in and it’s BRK brand hilarity….

  3. Sean says:

    Nicely done Daniel – I hope the humor is clear to all your readers, and that this isn’t a real letter from Howard Schultz.

    A little Google-fu will show the unconvinced reader that it was neatly based on an open letter from Howard in February 2007:

  4. I don’t believe in censoring comments, so Sean is just fired.

    /fired!

    I’ve been working too hard. I come here to take a quick little funny reading break at work – and end up first thing I do looking at the source code for how you had the letter able to be clicked once for small version, once again for larger version. Ugh. Though, maybe I can count this as actually working. Hmm. Yeah. That’s it. Now I don’t feel guilty! Speaking of which, is this a new version of lightbox?

    Very cute letter too. I’m hoping you get the BRK World Wide Amalgamated lawyers to fire back something quickly.

    You need to get Jackie Childs on the case. He’ll get you on a billboard or something!?

    Such a lovely company Starbucks, I do believe I will drive over and buy a cup of their lovely coffee in the morning . . . or right now.

    Do you ever wonder why there are so many Starbucks stores?

    Yup, thats how many bodies they need to hide in the cement.

    Watch your back Mr. Howell.

    I have scars from when I crossed Starbucks. Walked in with a friend while carrying a Dunkin Donuts cup. Suddenly, there were three of them, blurs of barista light and fury, punching every sensitive spot on my body and discovering a few more in their rage. Last thing I remember was having a danish shoved up my nose while some indie progressive classical folk-rock lulled me to an unconscious state. I woke up with most of the Starbucks menu tattooed on my chest.

    They’re monsters, I tell you. Monsters.

    The WordPress plug used on this site is Floatbox Plus; that’s what makes the pictures grow-n-shrink. On BigRedKitty.net, I’m using the traditional LightBox2 plugin.

    Boy am I glad I drink tea.

  12. Cathy says:

    I do love the Starbucks Caramel Macchiato but the prices are very high for what it is. I’m a Canadian so I’ll stick with my Tim Horton’s Coffee.

    point him my way BRK, I’ll take the hit

  15. janette allen says:

    lol, if this is a serious letter from them, then I will NEVER buy any more starbucks products, and I buy lots of their energy drinks and frappacinu drinks they sell in the stores.

  16. Had a few viewing the site in Safari on Linux, but apart from that loved the post.

    @Daniel. Thanks for letting us know one of your secret about the Lightbox 2 plugin. Now my site looks as leet as yours. I always thought you were some kind of crazy programmer who made your own theme. All those dishes look delicioso. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16QH0VmRbrE

  18. Hey, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility issues. When I look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, very good blog! Also, please visit my blog http://www.facebook.com/notes/sports-deals-online/review-of-rainbow-mat/271353966256850
