As Surely As Coffee is the Elixir of Life

Then so is life the perfect companion to coffee.

I passed by Lorenzo today on my drive to the office. Lorenzo was a fellow denizen of the Onyx Cafe, and I had just called him to let him know about our old boss, John Leech's
untimely passage into the Great Beyond. I told him that I had talked to John periodically at Kaldi, and there Lorenzo was, driving by Kaldi thinking about going inside. I surprised him and he re-parked his car. We shared a cup and some laughs.

It will be weird to not run into John here again. He will be missed. The man practically invented the Coffeehouse, at least in LA.
