County tackles bikini barista rules 11/9/09
Divorce fair a French affair 11/9/09
Minidress too much for Brazilian college 11/9/09
 

Time to put a lid on it


Posted at 12:01 am by Jon Bauer, Herald staff

That's funny; Jim never has a second cup: The Snohomish County Council is considering changes to its laws concerning bikini baristas at espresso stands that could take some of the steam out of the baristas' skimpier attire.

It's best to set some boundaries now, before the trend of wearing lingerie or less spreads to bank tellers, bus drivers and road construction crews.

Blame it on Rio: A female student at a private Brazilian university has been expelled for wearing a miniskirt to class, drawing heckles from fellow students.

But the student has objected to complaints about her attire, saying she was enrolled in the college's barista training program.

C'est la vie: Paris was host to its first-ever divorce fair on Sunday. Meeting a need in a country where nearly half of all marriages end in divorce, the fair's stands offered legal services, makeovers, dating advice and even Tarot card readers.

Seeing as it was probably what led to many of the divorces in the first place, espresso stands at the Paris fair were staffed by baristas in lingerie.
