Even Hamlet Liked Coffee...

Hey guys,

This is a short interpretation of Hamlet's soliloquy from one of my favorite authors. I thought some of you might enjoy it.

To expresso or to latte, that is the question
Whether ‘tis tastier on the palate to choose white mocha over plain
Or to take a cup to go
Or a mug to stay or extra cream, or have nothing,
And by opposing the endless choice, end one’s heartache
To froth, to sprinkle, perchance to drink, and in that….

By: Jasper Fforde – Something Rotten
