David Shellhorn snuggles with Vivian Dolcetta and tells her, "Poor, poor Starbucks Coffee. They are so all alone. Sure, they sell 60 billion dollars of coffee in a year. They truly must be lonely with no real competition. We can correct this deficit by offering our business expansion, a finer cup of coffee, and better service. We can live in their world with vigorous competition."
"Someday I would like to share anchor amongst the billionaire yachts with Star II of Africa Cruise Ship, our Company Yacht. We can invite our friends and key associates to join us."
We can improve the quality of coffee supply by negotiating a partnership with select coffee growers, and this can be done through environmental Carbon Capture.
Vivian did not say a word. She gently put her shoosh finger on David's lips. She had something else in mind.
