Many people know that I have a drinking problem. Not alochol, but coffee. I love it. It calms me down. It gets me going. It does whatever I need it to do...whenever I need it. It's like when you haven't gone to church in a while and you finally go, and it seems as though the minister is talking directly to you about your life. It's like he always knows exactly what you need. Well, coffee knows exactly what I need.

I have always been a fan of Starbucks due to it's consistency and its style. But, the coffee experience is about so much more now. It's about a great coversation with a good Barista (fancy term for coffee drink maker), or writing a blog entry on your laptop with free wireless internet access. What's that? Does Starbucks have free wi-fi service, you ask? NO. They don't. You have to pay $9.00 for the use of their internet. Look, I'm a budgeting expert. Don't give me that $9.00 to use the internet junk. I ask for very few things in my coffee life: very good coffee, good converstion with the Barista, and FREE WI-FI access.

The solution. I have found the perfect alternative: B java. It is located at 56th and Lafayette Rd in Indy. It's great coffee, the owner is super friendly...and oh yeah....THEY HAVE FREE WIFI. There is even a Starbucks across the parking lot. You can taunt the people that are dropping $9.00 on internet access.  Check out BJ's blog below. She is a small business owner that cares about your coffee life.
