Damn coffee cups
Here in Philly, we've got little silver mini-diners on lots of street corners—I get coffee at my favorite when I'm feeling flush with cash.
And damn if the local FUX station hasn't gone and given a lot of branded styrofoam cups to all the Philly mini-diners as promotions. So now I can choke on my coffee when I read the Orwellian "fair and balanced" on the side of my cup...
Why doesn't someone from the Dean campaign get smart and give some cups to the mini-diners?
Philly being such a polite town, I bet there's a lot of people like me who are diffident about asking for coffee without winger tripe, but who would be glad to see a Dean cup, and brighten the diner owner's day by mentioning it.
