This is where I share the wisdom that a granny, as an elder of the tribe, accumulates in her journey through life. The reach of my mind is wide, and sometimes even a little deep. Sometimes, like Whitman, I contradict myself. Sometimes I wax eloquent. Sometimes I fall on my face. Why not do it in public?

Click to enlarge. This reminds me of the Lewis Black routine about the end of the universe, where you walk out of a Starbucks and there, across the street, is another Starbucks.
Downtown, there are 4 Starbucks in about 5 blocks....one in the Barnes and Noble, one across the street from the B&N, one a block North of the B&N, and one two blocks East of the B&N, inside Safeway. Only the ones on street level are 'full' Starbucks, meaning you can't buy beans or coffe grounds at the ones in B&N and Safeway, but I hardly think that matters to most folks.
They all seem to be busy most of the time, and there's a Peet's coffee about 2 1/2 - 3 blocks Northwest of the B&N, and somehow, it always seems busy too.

Yep. Starbucks is taking over the world. One block at a time.
