With work hard to find in the small Maine town of 4,500, not many people were willing to pay much for a cup of coffee. But once proprietor Donald Crabtree opened a topless coffee shop, it seemed patrons couldn’t pump themselves with caffeine fast enough. For five months, the Grand View Topless Coffee Shop in Vassalboro, Maine, proudly offered its black steaming brew with a side of devil dumplings. That all changed this week, after some callous barbarian set the jug-jigglin’ joe joint ablaze. Uncool? You bet your double-shot soy latte. Grand View Topless Coffee Shop, Vassalboro thanks you for the mammaries.

Numbers

Number of gallons of water it takes to grow enough coffee beans to yield just one cup of coffee, according to New Scientist magazine.

Being naked approaches being revolutionary; going barefoot is mere populism.

Fact

Herostratus was a young punk in ancient Greece, hell-bent on being famous. In July of 356 BC, he set fire to the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus. The temple was the most beautiful shrine in Greece. In an effort to halt future attention-seeking arsonists, Herostratus was executed, and anyone that spoke his name was as well. Centuries later, it appears someone let it slip.

The Bottom Line

We tip our hats to the vision and entrepreneurial spirit of Mr. Crabtree. Where most saw a coffee can, he envisioned coffee and cans.
