From the Washington Post (page may load pop-ups; scroll about halfway down for the item):
The TRENT LOTTE! I never thought I’d say this, but wow, the Washington Post is one funny read.
Maybe next they’ll start serving Coffee Annan, which will move inspection teams into Starbuck’s and check for weapons of mass decaffeination.
What happened to the pregnant cow? She was de-calf-innated.
Is Starbuck’s run by a Battlestar Galactica refugee?
I dunno, maybe it’s the cold pills… sorry.
Are you cough-y?
I have the same excuse. Gonna milk it for all it’s worth.
Extra points to you if you know who Starbuck’s was really named for.
Starbuck was the first mate on Ahab’s ship in Moby Dick. I think he was first mate; some kind of officer.
Ding ding ding ding ding! Come on doooowwwnn!
Yep, he carried his mug of coffee 'round the ship, I believe.
(Sorry for ‘jackin’ your thread a bit. Looks like you didn’t really mind, though.
Kramer’s is great, always friendly and good live music up in the balcony. Also back during the Clinton-Lewinsky saga, Starr’s office wanted receipts from books she bought for Bill, but the store was firm in denying it to them and got the subpoena overturned.
(run-on sentence anyone? ;);))
