The explosion occurred inside the Taco Del Mar restaurant about 2:30 a.m.

"How about russlin' us up some more beans?" "You fellas have had enough!"

Seems like I remember a Starbucks manager or owner being murdered in Vancouver some time back.

Soros = Starbucks or Star “bucks”

Nanobots embedded in the Star “bucks” beans migrate to the right side of the brain causing the starbucks user to shift to the left to compensate the imbalance.

Teasing

The important thing is that they have someone who can offer them hope and the promise of change!!

Can I be president? I have lots of change. It's in a jar on my bathroom counter.

The trick is to offset the nanobots with four pumps of white chocolate syrup. Nanobots can’t live in all that sugar for more than five minutes.

In Seattle, a decent sized explosion would take out four or five.

Exactly!

With possibly a Tully's caught in the crossfire. That would be very sad...

Change is not enough. You must also have the audacity of Hope...

Heh...at the very least they’re eeeeevil capitalists, don’t ya know. Obviously in league with the radical right-wingers. How dare they be successful!

Starbucks threads kinda crack me up...neither side wants to claim ‘em, a lot of the time.

The Tully’s in our building closed down a few months ago and all the employees shifted to other stores.

The poor store was sandwiched in between five Starbucks and a Seattle’s Best, all within a block, and was so tiny only five people could be in there at one time.

Yes, it is. It’s also rampant around here.

I like it, myself. Probably my only vice.
