Agree with what you said about the treatment of Lavazza coffee.  Aside from the in-store macchiato I mentioned, the only other coffee I’ve had of theirs has been from people who’ve bought their beans and brewed at home.  Sadly, my experience with that has never been good.  Somebody pulls that familiar can with the logo out, and my heart sinks.  I know it’s not going to be good.

Years ago I was researching espresso machines and discovered that the best ones, like the La Marzocco, can draw out flavors from a bean that other machines (or processes) can’t and that’s why La Marzocco’s are often used in competitions.

The point being, if I’m doing pour-overs at home, an espresso might not be the best test for my at home results.  Anyway, long ramble to say I’m not interested in Lavazza coffee beans.

Nah, only upside, even Microsoft willing to buy for 80. $PINS, $MSFT

What's your take on $TLRY?

$NIO all the way baby!

#Kohl's is finally looking attractive to me after a long rough patch. $KSS

I've had the identical concerns. I trust Facebook even less than Tiktok.

The Middle East will always be a wild card. I wonder what it would take to have true stability there. Do you think the explosion in Lebanon was just an accident?

They can do anything with the tech these days. Some of it is very Big Brother like too! Kind of scary if you ask me.

Useful tips here. I expect all companies will need to adapt and evolve or they will not survive this traumatic time.

These are good points, Joseph.
