| Don't know if you checked the new stuff... Ibriks, double-walled FPs, and... soccer balls. I love this company. Panamanian robusta that rides on a bus. non-arabica coffee that tastes like cow poo. coffee in parchment. $125 bag of green coffee. bird poop coffee (notice the theme?). and now we find out that when Tom goes on his coffee trips, he also takes Sweet Marias soccer balls. Sure, it promotes his brand and what-not, but it is also a soccer ball that can be used by young and old alike in poor countries, most of whom use cobbled-together balls. The website sez, since ya gotta get soccer balls made in quantity, why not offer them to us? Anyway, I'm not buying one, I have no use for it, but still... I love this company. And Tom is class act all the way! bill Homeroast mailing list Homeroasthttp://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20">http://lists.sweetmariascoffee.com/listinfo.cgi/homeroast-sweetmariascoffee.comHomeroast community pictures -upload yours!) :http://www.sweetmariascoffee.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemIdx20 |

| Amen - there is too little class in this world, then Tom comes along, with the entire Sweet Maria's gang and gives me hope for all of us.

| I was thinking that I'd buy one of the soccer balls and leave a message with the order for Tom to take it with him and give it away on his next trip. For some reason the shopping basket program isn't picking it up right now. Guess I'll try again later.

| What a great idea! I'd like to do the same thing. Is there a list-reader who can get this suggestion to SM's and put it on the list for purchase/donation? robert yoder> Date: Mon, 25 Aug 2008 20:40:50 -0700> From: michael.dhabolt> To: homeroast> Subject: Re: [Homeroast] Tom is classy> > I was thinking that I'd buy one of the soccer balls and leave a> message with the order for Tom to take it with him and give it away on> his next trip.> > For some reason the shopping basket program isn't picking it up right> now.
