Mike: There was an article in the WSJ last week about "fast-coffee" places setting up shop in France.

Starbucks hasn't made it here yet, but I'll send you a mug when it does.

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Starbucks Coffee Co. has so far ignored France, at least for now, focusing its European expansion instead on the U.K., Germany, Spain and Greece. But it says it plans to open a shop in France soon. "We want to build one cup at a time, one store at a time, according to customer response [and] we hope in the next few years to be in France," says Mark McKeon, president of Starbucks' Europe, Middle East and Africa operations.</font>
