Boss, you look tired.

As reported in the Scottish newspaper, The Daily Record, ONE in five bosses never take a coffee break.

We here at Shock Coffee are outright concerned. It shouldn't ever come to that. Sure, you could say we are overreacting given that 80% of bosses do take a coffee break, but we say 20% is worth our concern.

Now, bosses of Scotland, and indeed the entire working work, please take your coffee break!

Its good for your health, it relieves stress, its good for employee moral, its just good.

Caffeine? You can't escape!

Here we go! This story on CNN again demonstrates you just can't get away from caffeine.

Might we suggest if you are looking to avoid caffeine, that you skip the decaf and go with a nice cup of hot water.

Otherwise, you might just forget the whole notion and skip on over to the Shock Coffee site and pick yourself up a starter kit and get on with your day. ;)

Decaf Coffee not all its cracked up to be

As reported on CBS news, decaf is in fact not decaffeinated.

Not that we here at Shock Coffee have any interest in anything decaf, given we spend our time trying to find ways to put more caffeine in just about everything, but there you have it.

Coffee as Art

There are many works of art featuring the ever popular cup of coffee. The coffee house, long a refuge of artists, has from time to time inspired coffee related works of art.

One artist, Ryan L. Lewis, in North Carolina has taken to using coffee as a medium for painting and sculpture. You can find his work online at http://www.thecoffeeartcorporation.com/, or you can check him out on Myspace at http://www.myspace.com/caffeinatedmedium.
