Starbucks President and CEO, Howard Schultz, has been detained by police in Houston, Texas, as concerns grow over the disappearance of 29 year old Erin Davis who vanished from the Houston area after taking a part time job at the coffee giant.

Houston Police Chief, Harold Hurtt, says that concern is mounting for the safety of Ms Davis after she was reported missing from Xanga since early August. A post on the 11th of September, supposedly made by Davis, amounted to little more than a few words leading officials to believe that the entry may well have been made by captures within the coffee giants network. Davis has been seen less and less on Xanga since starting at Starbucks.

Revd. Chuck Western from the ‘Howdy Ya’ll, Lets give it up for God’ Church, says that the disappearance of Starbucks employees is nothing new. He believes that Davis is probably well but has been unwittingly sucked into what he refers to as the ‘CCC,’ an acronym for Corporate Coffee Cult.

“Well, I tell ya’ll what I think. [spit] I think ya’ll find that little Miss Erin is problee’ fine and dandy, [spit] as long as she works all the good Lords hours! [spit] I tell ya’ll, there’s trouble in them there Starbucks places. [spit] They’all a cult I tell ya. [spit] A cult ya hear! [spit] And that there Howard Shots guy, well he’s brain washing them all.” said Revd. Western in his weekly radio appeal for money from the poor.

Boyfriend, John Wossisname, was being comforted at the couples Houston residence last night. In a brief statement to the press Wossisname simply said “Pip sir.” A sign that the strain of worry is beginning to set in.

Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Ms Davis is urged to contact police immediately.
