Talk Beware of Macchiato...
Yesterday, I was out running around with a friend, and we stopped at Starbucks, she had a Latte, and I asked for a small caramel Macchiato (btw, a "small" over there is referred to as a "tall"...go figure)...thus began a night of unspeakable depravity...

The details are hazy, but after getting home, I logged onto TechIMO, just to, you know...check in.... I came to with my daughters tugging on my sleeves and imploring me to "Get OFF the computer!!" :embarrassment: Their eyes were HUGE in their pale faces...

The next thing I remember is watching a show on MTV called "Celebrity Death Match" and being held in thrall in anticipation of the outcome.

This morning, reviewing my posts of the night before, I discover a strong theme running through them, a series of strange, unearthly allusions to interplanetary doings...

I conclude that either:
a) I'm just waiting for the Mothership to pick me up and take me home, or....
b) Watch out for Macchiato!

the size names have to do with the amount of liquid the cup holds. A tall is 12 oz Grande is 16oz and Venti is 20oz(thusly called Venti italian for 20)
Venti is purely an american invention because we like BIG. A Short (small) is 8-10oz depending on where you are. Starbucks doesnt sell those because not enough people order them. If you DO want a short ask for a childs drink. Usually only Hot Chocolate or a steamer.

I'll go with the abduction hypothesis and a good thing it was Will totally discombulate their program several years as the plug in your knothole instead of nasal data and take you as an exemplar of humanoid mentality.

GOOD WORK, I SAY

I expected no less .

Will never happen, Warthog

They've been forewarned by the knothole probe to leave humanoids alone untill they understand cellulose better.
