Once again, the liberal agenda is woeful & wanting. The Starbucks here was as crowded as it usually is on a Saturday.

Crowded at my local one too and they were all clueless it was happening. The unfortunate part is the young guy helping me asked his manager if they accept $2 bills, no joke. I couldn't believe it.

Nothing new. When working in CA in the early '80's, I went to cash a check at the bank it was drawn on. Showed the teller my Alaska DL and was told they only accept U.S. identification. After her manager got her straight, she asked me after handing me the cash, what type of currency we used in Alaska :headscratch

When I was in the Army I was stationed in Germany, I had some girl from Houston write and one of the questions she asked was "How did they celebrate Thanksgiving in Germany".

A young soldier in the FRG asked me "How hard will it be to teach my kids English if I marry a German girl?"

We went twice Saturday. Once in the morning for breakfast and once in the afternoon for some tea while at the mall.

"Starbucks got embroiled in the national debate on gun control after some gun rights advocates declared Aug. 10 “Starbucks Appreciation Day” to reward the Seattle coffee chain for following laws that allow armed customers."
Enjoy the celebration folks. I'm sure there will not be the opportunity for it to be an annual event.
If I ever open a national chain please do not announce a celebration of my gun friendly policies.
BTW, The ER was very business this weekend. Seems a lot of people shot themselves in the foot.
