Lego Coffee Drinker of the week: Cops and Coffee

May 30th, 2009 by Dave

Cops and Coffee go together like apple pie and ice cream.  It's no secret that the key behind top notch law enforcement is the quality of their coffee.  Just as important as the quality of the law dogs' go juice is the speediness in which they can make it.  Most Police officers have to be ready to jump at a moments notice when something pops off and they can't be waiting around for a big pot to finish brewing.

Any good cop has to be a good problem solver and to solve the speed and quality quagmire they sometimes find themselves in when brewing coffee,  cops keep coffee pods in their ammunition belts.  Coffee pods are single serving packs of good quality coffee.  So they are ready for anything that is thrown their way.

Thanks Mr. Policeman for being so prepared.
