National Coffee Day

(MYFOX NATIONAL) - Rejoice, it's National Coffee Day. No one really knows how the event got started, but those who enjoy a hot Cup of Joe don't really care -- they just want their java fix. (DAMN Skippy Mike!)
So where are the places to go if you're looking for a deal?
In New England, McDonald's is offering a free hot cup of Newman's Own Organics all day Tuesday and Wednesday.
On the West Coast, Panera Bread is holding a "Pay It Forward" promotion . Buy any size of drip coffee, say "Pay it Forward" and you get a second cup for free to give to a friend.
In Miami, Buttercream Cupcakes and Coffee will commemorate the day with free cups of a unique blend of 100 percent Colombian coffee from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.
National Coffee Day has also spurred a contest and a new product. Filterfresh Coffee Service, a Westwood, Mass., company that provides coffee service to offices and businesses, has launched a creative writing contest inviting folks to "write a tribute to the celebrated beverage, explaining why 'Coffee is the Greatest Beverage of All Time!'" The winner will receive a home brewer and coffee as well as a month of free coffee to the winner's place of business.
At Starbucks, a new instant coffee is being unveiled . Starbucks VIA Ready Brew is 100 percent natural roasted Arabic coffee in an instant form, according to the company's press release.
From Oct. 2 - Oct. 5, Starbucks is holding a taste challenge between the new product and its fresh-brewed Pike Place where participants will receive a coupon for a complimentary Tall brewed coffee on their next visit as well as an offer for $1 off a Starbucks VIA Ready Brew purchase.
If you still need a jolt this evening YumSugar offers some savory dinner recipes that feature coffee, like Coffee-Marinated Bison Short Ribs.

You Little Caf-fiend.
SI VIS PACEM PARA BELLUM-Ex-Sheriff Martin Howe to Will Kane in "High Noon"
"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.
-General Omar Bradley, United States Army

Figures that Starbucks would have a hand in this.

'Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a
delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly
promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely
possible to pick up a turd by the clean end!'
