Genius idea!
I've just decided I'm not going to get stressed out that I have only a few days left to shop. If I get everything fine, if I don't then fine too.

I'd imagine most of your friends will still be your friends even if you don't manage to get them that Loganberry scented candle by December 25.
You can always blame the economy.

Hahaha Those videos are great!
Hey Mac, that is a good idea! I'll just skip it and give them a couple of free lattes. Those caffeine fiends would enjoy that most of all!

I stopped asking for anything for Xmas cause I know I won't get it...but it's ok. I'm in the role of Santy Clause now for my kids. That's reward enough...seeing their faces light up when they get gifts is just an awesome experience.

Well those types of things are fun to dream about...and maybe one day I can find and buy. It seems like anything else I want is on the back burner these days anyhow but that's ok...the kids come first

Did you know you can plot your life by the four stages of Santa Claus?
1. You believe in Santa Claus.
2. You don’t believe in Santa Claus.
3. You are Santa Claus.
4. You look like Santa Claus.

Yeah, now see, that's actually a really great gift. You DO do just a regular black coffee, though, don't you? I stopped at a Starbucks once (it was an emergency) and the goon behind the counter couldn't figure out what I wanted or what to charge when I asked for a large black coffee. Apparently hot water filtered through ground beans in a cup causes a pricing conundrum if you don't add copious amounts of syrup, goo, or foam to it.

I know your pain, Mac! Starbucks doesn't believe in training beyond the pushing of a button on their auto-espresso machine. The kid didn't even know that they sell a venti black coffee?
No wonder they are dying!
And yes, we do sell some great ordinary coffee. hehe I love the Monsoon Malabar and the regular Italian Roast. Just good honest water over beans.

I'm hoping to get a new pair of Simpson's underwear. I left my old ones at the North Pole.
