Yeah, I get it.
Woman crashes into water, saves coffee
A woman is safe after losing control of her car and accidently driving into the waters of the Oakland Estuary. But on the upside, she saved her morning coffee.
Authorities say the car went into the water a little after 6 a.m. Thursday after its 22-year-old driver apparently lost control of her car while reaching for a cell phone.
After the car became lodged in stilts under a home on the water, the driver was able to get out of the car and make it back to shore.
Onlookers say she came ashore still cradling her coffee cup.
Speaking of coffee, Time Magazine has a big feature on Starbucks. Yes, I know they’re a blue company, but I’m hooked and have decided not to get over it.
Meanwhile, in Amsterdam an obviously loopy ‘health minister’ decided that marijuana smoking will be exempt from their coffee shop smoking ban. You know, the thing you do to allegedly protect the health of citizens by removing second hand smoke from the environment. So not only will there be second-hand cancer-causing smoke blowing into your face, it now will have the added benefit of making you stupid, too. Actually, this could be a stroke of brilliance on the part of the coffee shop owners. After all, who would benefit most from a bunch of people who are high when they get the munchies?
Now that’s dedication!! ROFL!!!
Technically in Amsterdam, you go to a “Coffee Shop” to buy and smoke pot. If you want a cup of coffee, you go to a café. It’s kind of messed up but I guess it saves the tourists the embarrassment of asking where the pot shops are. So having a ban on smoking at coffee shops is like having a ban on smoking at a cigar shop.
Starbucks – $4 for a burned, bitter cup of coffee (and be surrounded by liberal would be elites who need to fill up time with their laptops between feedings).
LOL! I too am a patron of that “blue” company and if my car were going to sink any way I would try to save my Grande Brew.
