Life (or at least Concurring Opinions) Imitates BOTW
From the February 27th edition of Best of the Web (posted at 4:11PM):
“Life Imitates the Onion
• "After a decade of aggressive expansion throughout North America and abroad, Starbucks suddenly and unexpectedly closed its 2,870 worldwide locations Monday to prepare for what company insiders are calling "Phase Two" of the company's long-range plan."--Onion, March 14, 2001
• "As caffeine junkies looking for their evening fix were locked out of Starbucks during the company's three-hour nationwide training session Tuesday, many didn't have to look farther than some competing cafe down the street for free or discounted cups of joe."--Associated Press, Feb. 26, 2008”
From a February 27th posting at Concurring Opinions two hours later:
“This:
Starbucks Takes a 3-Hour Coffee Break
seems wayyyy too close for comfort to this:
Starbucks To Begin Sinister 'Phase Two' Of Operation"
