I like the heavy flavor of Starbuck’s coffee, but I often get frustrated standing behind 38 double half-caf, mocha latte customized orders to ask for my “small decaf, please”.

I remember one time at a Starbuck’s hearing someone ask for something like a machiato frappaccino and thinking it sounded like some of the names of guys I went to high school with back in Youngstown, Ohio.

And I hope you NEVER quit! THAT to me, would be almost be the end of my little world.

Okay, as to Starbucks, I have to confess to not being a patron there. I can hear the gasps of horror from here. “SACRILEGE!” you and others are probably saying. Oh well, I’ll have to plead guilty on that one, and be glad that there are no criminal penalties for “failure to patronize Starbucks.” Yet.

I must confess to being a news junkie. I exhaust all of the news site in an endless effort to satisfy an insatiable appetite. I just tell myself that I can handle it and quit at any time.

You don’t really use them as a news source of first resort, do you?
