Starbucks, The Way I See It.

by Jeff on January 14, 2008

As time will illustrate, I have a serious addiction to Starbucks coffee. Every day I get a new cup I’m going to post “The Way I See It” comment that is printed on the cup. Why do this? I don’t know. I really like some of the comments and hope that it’s okay to share.

To see my collection of posts, you can follow The Way I See It link.

The Way I See It #266

by Jeff on January 14, 2008

“Once, when excavating the house of a medieval sailor on the coast of the Red Sea in Egypt, I found a still-preserved reed mat in front of a door. Under the doormat was a wooden key with the name of the owner painted on it. It was an extraordinary sense of connection with the last person to walk out of that building 700 years ago.”

Today’s order: grande black eye (2 shots of espresso) in a venti cup. Didn’t get much sleep last night.

“All children need a laptop. Not a computer, but a human laptop. Moms, dads, grannies and grandpas, aunts, uncles — someone to hold them, read to them, teach them. Loved ones who will embrace them and pass on the experience, rituals and knowledge of a hundred previous generations. Loved ones who will pass to the next generation their expectations of them, their hopes, and their dreams.”

– General Colin L. Powell
Founder of America’s Promise — The Alliance for Youth

The Way I See It #258

"Because true conservatives are pessimists, they are happier than liberals for three reasons.  First, pessimists are rarely surprised.  Second, when they are wrong they are delighted to be so.  Third, pessimists do not put their faith in princes — in government.  They understand that happiness is a function of fending for oneself.  Happiness is an activity; it is inseparable from the pursuit of happiness.
