(AP) -- An attempted burglary at a California supply store was thwarted when the manager threw hot coffee in the face of a masked intruder. Chris Hegnes, manager of the Englund Marine and Industrial Supply, was going into work early Monday morning when he encountered a man in a mask charging at him with a hammer. Hegnes says he hurled his hot mocha at the man's face and ran for it. The man came after him for a few steps, then ran to a vehicle parked behind the store. Hegnes says the man apparently had been trying to break into a safe using the store's hardware tools. The man didn't get away with much, but damaged some tools. The sheriff's office is investigating.

Can't think of a better use for most coffee that's available out there... Also - after reading that first line - An attempted burglary at a California supply <Snip> my first thought was,"mmm - a cup of coffee would taste good right now..."
