That is just a lovely article. Hah hah hah! I like the 'ole turn around--when I read 'two tall skinny lattes' i thought they were making a joke about Sam and Carl!
Funny that. You've got two handsome young men working in *this* coffee shop...you might start seeing *women* going to this one more ;-)
I wanted it that way. I wrote the press release and coached the kids on the kind of small town boy does good, pull yourself up by your bootstraps kind of language that I knew would hit the spot for our potential customers. It's all true, just not all of the truth.
And it was interesting to watch the boys see how they knew the truth, but that the newspaper was making another truth -- a truth that their friends and teachers and such would believe, whole cloth. It's a good lesson.
