So I was coming back from Southern Missouri this morning – tired from the Fambly Re-Onion and soon-to-be-my-property informal inspection – and I noticed the Starbucks they built last year near where I live in St. Charles. It was doing a hugely unimpressive business then – it being about 9AM on Sunday morning – a time when no one drinks coffee, apparently. There were approximately no cars in the lot or drive-thru.
I read that Starbucks was closing about 600 of the places (Yay! Fuck ‘em!) and and decided that I should go into this local one and give them some shit. It was only fair, I figured. I don’t patronize Starbucks, and I thought I’d give them the benefit of my August Presence – even though it is July – before they folded up their tent and faded into the mists of yesterday. Or whatever.
But I had to go home first and prepare.
Summer cane: check.
Texas Teeth: check.
Whoopee: nope. The poor fella has to stay behind during warm weather – nowhere to hide it. I gave it a fond little squeeze (*ppbbbbt*) and put it away, wiping away a stray memory tear.
Baggy short pants with teltale “wet” stain on the front: check.
Led Zeppelin T-shirt with rip and underarm rings: check.
Troy-Bilt Tractor cap: check.
Wallet: check.
Removing ten Ones and a Fiver from my wallet, I quickly soaked them in warm water in the kitchen sink, waiting impatiently for them to soak thoroughly. Squeezing them out, I then stuck them into a small zip-lock baggy and drove over to my target.
I had not bathed that morning. I was ready.

Here, however, is some porn. And here is some Daily Whatever from those Last Of The Few Folks.
