There is a small coffee house, by the name of Ciao in the town of Clinton
Township, MI.  This is one of the best places to go if you are a hitchhiker
in dire need of that life-giving drug caffeine [1].  Ciao is located at
17 1/2 mile [2] and Garfield road.

The man who owns Ciao is Fat Sal [3,4].  The people there (i.e. Sal) are
very fluent in Italian.  And frequently have annoying Italian music playing,
and, even more frequently, annoying Italian movies.  Also, do not be
surprised if they speak to each other in, yes, you guessed it, Italian.

And, yes, they do have a killer cup of cappucino.  For maximum effect, go
two doors down in the mini-mall to Bernie's Party Store and buy a big bottle
of Jolt.  This will keep you up for longer than you think, and enable you to
search for more rides.

[1] Also a very good place to go if you are a student of any sort looking to
    face the heinous torture of finals!  (Shudder)
[2] For those of you not living in Michigan or Washington DC, a mile road
    is a (yes) road that encircles a given point (in this case Detroit) at
    every mile mark.  Thus, 16 mile road is 16 miles away from Detroit.
    Very helpful actually [5].
[3] If you ever see him, you'll know why.
[4] Do not! I repeat, do not call him this to his face!
[5] Editor 8:  As was this explanation.  However, the consequence of Detroit
    being a city that is 1/3 mile across, has changed my perspective of the
    USA tremendously.
