and "how do I just order a good cup of strong black coffee?"


Got that right,
I walked into a Starbucks a few months ago, taken my chances on the
famous coffee house. Had to search the board for just a plain black
coffee...finally saw Tall, Grande, and Venti. What happened to Sm, Med,
Lg???
I had to wait in a long line behind a group of teens who ordered their
double cappuccino latte mocha decafs with a twist of lemon, then had to wait
again because the coffee wasn't made yet. Guess nobody orders just a simple
black coffee anymore.

there is an old steve martin movie with a scene involving a yuppie group
in l.a. ordering coffee that'll give you a chuckle...
