Good Bye Mr. Coffee
<
Carlos Sanchez, 71, who played the character Juan Valdez, the face of the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia for 37 years, announced his retirement yesterday.
I want his job. I LOVE COFFEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am back by the way. I am resuming my normal posting in the next few days.
After 37 years, it was becoming increasingly difficult for Juan to get up the mountain to pick the coffee beans. Finally, he decided it was time to throw in his poncho.
I had a friend in college whose telephone answer message was "hello, my name is juan baldez. I am out picking coffee with my donkey. Please leave a message."
I always think of Uncle Timmy when I hear about juan b.

Give the guy a break. You wouldn't want him to overexert himself. After all, nobody like a his-panic attack.

This isn't going to mess up my coffee intake, will it?
I hope not. I love me my coffee in the morning ;-)
