About guns, coffee, and all the other stuff I feel like talking about.

Mmm... Coffee...
Despite the efforts of the Brady Bunch, Starbucks reports a 7% increase in sales. This does not help the daydreams of my blog's title one day becoming the name of a store...
I'd like to think that 7% increase was due to gun owners supporting them... but its probably just a sign of people going back to spending more of their disposable income.
I'm maintaining hope that it's a little of both. I know I actually did buy a couple cups from them in the last couple months purely because of the OC issue.
Nice one Fred. Starbucks is in my budget... and my portfolio. So along with drinking their coffee and buying their shares... I thought I would go one step further to show my support... I stole the brady bunch's logo from their site and turned it into a shirt everyone can agree with. Want one?
