Adam: I'm going to buy up all the Doc's nuclear coffee and corner the market... Laura: No ones successfully cornered the market on a commodity in years. Adam: I don't believe it. They got to you, didn't they? Laura: Who? Adam: The tea people. I'm no fool. It's the classic "short squeeze" business technique. Laura: Your head needs a classic "long squeeze".

Oh that’s right Doc, haven’t you (or us, for that matter) forgotten about the Tea People?

How can he corner the market with such a vast worldwide [or interstellar yet?] pipeline?
Allan CB Premium Member over 14 years ago
Doc, somehow I believe that. Did you put nanites into the coffee, or, did they go there because of the abnormally strong gravitational well?

Does the “Tea Conspiracy” include the BuildABetterBurgers, Iditarodi or poodles?

Coffee is my caffeine of choice. The only time that I occasionally drink tea is if I have a cold when for some inexplicable reason I do not want coffee.

Doc Toon, are there any local coffee roasters where you live? You should contact them and suggest this name - getting some kind of cash [or free beans] out of the deal, of course! (Roos Roast in Ann Arbor has interesting names, that’s what made me think of it.)

I am not giving up my pipeline annex either, Doc! Anything else would taste like water. And I am not paying royalties here. :^)

And I’m not giving mine up either, DocT but maybe you can charge the rest for access.

Excellent job, Brian! Again, congratulations, Doctor Toon!
If Doctor Toon franchised his “Nuclear Coffee”, I’d buy it!

You bet it has, that’s due to the space-time portals of my supplier (who also sends out CocoMocha and Red Lava Hot Pepper Sauce, the hottest capsicum pepper sauce ever created).
