Help Me, Obi Won Kenobe – You’re Still My Only Hope!

By On June 14, 2010 · 7 Comments · In The Coffee Shop Chronicles

You remember the scene, sure you do. Princess Whatserface’s recorded message beaming out of R2 while Luke and Obi Won sit there munching popcorn. He was her only hope. Imagine how that felt, huh?

Now, imagine you’re a Coffee Shop Chronicles writer sitting next to Luke, and I’m the royal broad in the white garb and the hair extensions around my ears. I need your help – the fate of the galaxy could depend on it. Well, okay then, the progress of the contest.

We need ALL your details from you by midnight Wednesday June 16th (California time). We’ve asked nicely and now we’re resorting to sci-fi related allegories. Or is it a metaphor? I forget.

Don’t delay, update your details today – everything – and remember to include the full details of your favorite coffee shop. We can’t announce the winners until we’ve checked out all the information from all of the successful entrants.

a) add the missing details yourself on your registration www.awordwithyoupress.com/will-you-let-u…

or

b) email me on derek@awordwithyoupress.com with ALL your details including the coffee shop of your dreams (and your favorite Barista).

May the Thorn be with you.

    Is the Thorn anything like the Schwartz?

  • Derek

    yes but it's not completely kosher

    Yes, but more pointed. May the Farce be with you.

    I sent in my details any chance you have them still? -Carrie Bailey

    Hi Carrie, yes we do, thank you. However, I'm a little hazy about which coffee shop address you're referring to. Using my boy scout tracker skills, I found 401 A Avenue or 47 North State Street. Is it either of them? (I also found a robin's nest and a bunch of pine cones.)

  • Bzuley

    I actually forgot what I entered! hahaha! I don't know a state street either. Truth is I moved to Lake Oswego just this December.

    So, old Starbucks standby might be just as well… but Coffee Culture in Corvallis is the best coffee place of all time and Interzone. I haven't found my “coffee home” here yet.

    *Sigh* Again, two choices for Coffee Culture in Corvallis:
    1195 Northwest Kings Boulevard, Corvallis – (541) 753-3030
    2215 Northwest 9th Street, Corvallis – (541) 231-0772

    and this is before any decision has been made about whether you' in the final list!
    For the good of my sanity, may I suggest 1195 Northwest?
