Man plans topless coffee shop in Maine

[CatWoman]

Feb. 19, 2004 | MADISON, Maine (AP) -- Tired of the same old Starbucks and Dunkin' Donuts? The Madison Planning Board tonight takes up a man's application to open a topless coffee shop on Main Street.

Normand St. Michel says his plan to employ partially nude waitresses is intended to boost the establishment's chances of success. He says the idea is to do something different to attract coffee drinkers.

[Beaker]

2. this has been done in Florida and Iowa...

that i know of...I'm not sure how either place is currently doing.

3. this could really slow down their vote counting in the future!

[matcom]

4. WOOOOHOOOOOOO

maybe i can do the same here in MA! :D

[Rabrrrrrr]

6. Okay, fine, but I just have to think this one thing:

If I were a woman, and was willing to be a topless waitress, would I want to be topless while carrying large amounts of super hot beverages?

No.

7. Nude mowing led the way...

...in Newport ME.

8. Do you want milk with that?

11. Totally lactating class, Spike

[King Coal]

15. Well, maybe just a squirt or two.

9. just goes to show: bare breasts make everything better...

:silly: :evilgrin:

[Fovea]

10. Yes

It is a sign of something that we have stigmatized them.
In fact, this country has a deep neurosis about any sort of
body centered activity that does not involve contact sports.

12. Why not?

I've gotten my hair cut by a topless female barber. I've also done both the topless and nekkid car wash.

What boob would pass up the chance for a double shot like that?

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

13. What hair exactly did she cut? (nt)

[alwynsw]

19. I'll never tell

A gentleman never does.

14. Marketing:

Double La-ta-ta-te. :evilgrin:

[GOPisEvil]

16. More reason to move to Maine!

:bounce:

17. Topless entertainment for the AA crowd

frankly, it sounds ridiculous to me.

[Westegg]

18. Topless coffee? That'll spill all over my interior. No thanx

[MaineDem]

20. Now he's reconsidering

There was a hearing on this last night and the "vehemence" (his term) of the crowd against this idea is making him think twice about it.

I'll see if I can find a link.
