Nike Air Max 90 Rea Spokeswoman Laurel
Nike Free Run At the risk of channeling Rolling Stone’s Matt Taibbi and Smith (or perhaps the movie The Lorax based on the book by Dr. Seuss), I would define the Wall Street of today as a place where client loyalty (in both directions) is tenuous at best and a transactional ethos prevails. Worse, business conflicts a linear consequence of the multiple business lines and practice areas of the modern financial services firm abound, with only superficial regard for procedures created to limit such conflicts.

Nike Air Max 90 Rea Spokeswoman Laurel Harper says the store is not affiliated with Starbucks and, despite the humor, the store cannot use the Starbucks name. (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)LOS ANGELES It was a caffeine charged Hollywood whodunit: Just whose bright idea was the “Dumb Starbucks” coffee shop that popped up and started serving free drinks from the corner of an otherwise uncelebrated strip mall.Film permits that show the buzz generating shop is tied to a comedy duo with a cult following might provide a clue.The permits were billed to Abso Lutely Productions, which is run by comedy duo Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim.Heidecker and Wareheim, commonly referred to as Tim Eric, are known for their surrealistic brand of sketch comedy. The duo’s free form shows on the Cartoon Network and the low budget 2012 feature film “Tim and Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie” have won them a following.On Monday morning, a line from the store wound alongside the parking lot and up the block, with some patrons stepping out to snap pictures in front of a green awning and mermaid logo that is familiar except that the word “Dumb” is prominently featured.They weren’t coming for gourmet fare: Their descriptions of the coffee ranged from “horrible” to “bitter,” and one parent said his daughter complained that the hot chocolate was like water.Instead, they are just coming to say they came, and to score a white paper cup with a sticker bearing the curious logo.”It was a pretty dumb idea to come out in the cold” and wait for nearly two hours to get a coffee, joked Anthony Solis, who lives in nearby Hollywood.One nearby merchant said someone had been selling cups for $5 each to people who didn’t want to wait.The store’s decor is reminiscent of a real Starbucks, complete with a huge menu on which most of the drinks were prefaced by “dumb” (“dumb iced coffee,” “dumb white chocolate mocha”).
