Enlightening Baristas At Starbucks. And To La Toya: Where Will I Get All My Advice Now?

Dear All,
While at Starbucks recently, I overheard a man saying to the female barista while waiting for his drink, "I was in Cancun," then, "in Mexico."
Then he said, "they have Starbucks there, too." The man was probably in his mid-30s, and I think with a shaved head.
Then after brief chit-chat, he said, "Ok, B'bye."

I think he thought he was enlightening the barista. (I was sitting at a table nearby). I don't know the facts, but she did not appear to be dumb.
When I say enlightening her, it is as in: REALLY? Cancun is in MEXICO? And, wow, they have ACTUAL Starbucks locations in other countries?

New Topic: I watched a brief segment of Celebrity Apprentice.
I have never been too into this show.

Except when the actual "The Apprentice" began, I thought it was interesting.

God only knows why I watched Celebrity Apprentice. However, I did see La Toya Jackson, and later pondered, why is La Toya on Celebrity Apprentice? What happened to the psychic hotline?

The End.

"I'm Not The Type To Take Sluts Out," A Stellar Starbucks Moment, And Cattle Out For A Stroll

Dear Readers,

Music News:
I heard a rap song today--it was by Big L--which contained the following lyrics: "I'm Not The Type To Take Sluts Out."
Wow, always good to know.
The song also contained the lyrics, "gonna start rapin' b******." Obviously, there are demeaning and moral reasons this is wrong. I will not go into that. It is also in very bad taste.

As you may or may not know, I do like some hip hop selections ... BUT only if they meet my approval.

What did you do today, ndh?:
I visited Starbucks. After they made my drink wrong, they made a new drink the way it was supposed to be, and gave me a size larger for free. They also gave me the mistaken drink. I hate to sound cliche, but this does not normally happen to me.
Not bad for a company founded in 1971 that was almost named Pequod.

On the way out of Starbucks, I saw a specialized Hummer with "Alpha" on the back end. So unattractive. My accompanier to Starbucks agreed with the level of attractiveness. Is this so an alpha-male can feel alpha-cool?

The End.
My final words,

Taken at the Big D Marathon, this past April. This guy likes to run 26.2 miles so much, he tattooed it on his leg.
On the other leg, he had a tattoo of the logo for the Tough Mudder race. (Are you tough enough? Find out when you check the link and take the "quiz").
