.... i'm not implying that harley owners are clueless or
idiots. but most folks buying bikes these days are buying
harleys only for the sake of buying a bike to be cool and
the bike they think gets them there is the harley.
it's similar to, "let's go to starbucks" to be cool

For that matter using "Soy milk" or 2% instead of WHOLE
milk? Anything is sacrilege and the coffee gods will punish
for it!

say what you want!!
give me an iced decaf vanilla latte... and i'm a happy girl!
i do, however... object to the size names!! i always feel stupid when i
order a "venti" iced latte...
(i FEEL stupid... but i order it ANYWAY!)
starbucks coffee is certainly an aquired thing. i used to think it was much
too strong. the key is knowing WHAT to get. they have so many great
beverages! my 12 year-old is HOOKED on the white chocolate mocha!
the contractor that's doing all the work on our house calls a venti mocha
"hot chocolate with a ritilin inside". :)

quad venti late
had a stranger (woman) standing behind my daughter and me in line one
time look up and say, "that's some serious coffee". I looked at her,
then looked at my daughter and said, "do I know her?", with a look
like "who dat?" on my face.

Brit mess hall coffee! The "Original Blend"! They start out with a the
same grounds and when the coffe is a burnt sludge in the bottom of the pot,
they just add more water to it, day after day, after day. Joe spent way to
much time TDY with the Brits.

Oh well...this IS Texas. Starbucks is a clear step up from what I got at
Kountry Diner, or Steak Kountry, or the Koffee Kup.
