We got a Starbucks here a year or two ago. Everyone, myself included, was SO excited! We had all heard do much about the wonders of Starbucks, and for our small town, it was a BIG deal.
Well, I have been to Starbucks exactly three times. I was not impressed at all. I found the menu to have about one fifth the choices of our local coffee houses, at about double the price. And the three things I did order were not particularly great - not horrible, but not wonderful.
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
