Being Indie Is Hard Work

The Tazza D'Oro cafe is closed for renovations this week, and will reopen tomorrow.

Overheard, from a guy who drove up and learned that lesson the hard way, then turned to his business associate:

Is there a Starbucks near [their destination]?

Notice he didn't say, "Is there another independently owned, green-minded, fair trade-driven coffee shop" nearby?

Apparently, the desire to support independent businesses only works when it's convenient.
