That's the sort of billboard you'd want to buy space on....if it was right next to a Starbucks.... ;D
My fountain diet coke habit is much cheaper...especially if I take my plastic cup for the refill price.
I won't park in the front parking lot at Hastings on Georgia...
And all the coffee-heads look at me strange when I park out in the north lot...
Walk in the coffee shop entrance...ignore them...and walk straight to the magazines.

Hey! Most of the folks I see in the Hastings coffee shop look a lot more liberal than I am. ;D Hate to have to say it...but I can usually spot a liberal...  Big reason I park in the north parking lot at Hastings is... That I hate straight in parking places...because it's easy to get backed into. And I can't seem to own a vehicle in Amarillo that doesn't get backed into at least once.  And walking is good exercise...so I never park up close anywhere I go. |

That billboard was posted close to Starbucks corporate headquarters in downtown Seattle. I interviewed wth them before taking a job here in Amarillo. They offered me a cup of coffee that you could stand a spoon in. Seattle is very Bohemian, I always found their coffee snobbery amusing. My sister lives out there and is a teacher to boot, so she is insufferably liberal. Whenever I hear some guy rattle off an order for a mocha frappucino I think he should be wearing leotards and a tutu.
