He and I admired the elegantly dressed model, Elsa, better known as "Miss Maryland Club". Print ads of her did their job because it made men stare uncontrollably towards her female features. The only way to be more connected to her was to purchase a can, fantasizing her lounging along the cup's brim. Sales soared that year for this premier, upscale blend of coffee. Any specialty roaster on the east coast longed for the secret recipe for this unique brew. It was no ordinary old can filled with coffee, instead it was brimming with magic. We entered into the humble coffee house along the Chesapeake with our newspapers in hand. After taking a seat and glancing around, we realized we were in the traditional meeting place of the areas merchants and sea captains. Everyone held a pin up in one hand and a cup of Maryland Club in the other. We discussed the possibilities of opening a franchise together for this new and popular beverage. It was just then, the man to our left, dressed in bright yellow poncho and rain hat, yelled out, "Where's that sexy brunette, Rosborough? The testosterone in here is about to burst"! The sound of her six inch heels hit the floor with charm. The chic statuette had arrived. Our daydreams disappeared. We all nursed another cup. This was going to be an extensive matinee.
