Funny thing about this one, a couple of weeks ago, I was chatting with one of my co-workers about how great it would be if there was a Starbuck&#8217;s right off post.  She had heard that someone tried to get Starbuck&#8217;s to send some coffee to the troops in Iraq.  Starbuck&#8217;s allegedly refused saying that while they support the troops, they don&#8217;t support the war. <del>I don&#8217;t know for a fact that Starbuck&#8217;s really took that position.  I hope they didn&#8217;t as I love their coffee.<\/del>  I still got a bit riled up about it and made the statement that &#8220;You can&#8217;t support one without the other.&#8221;  I was going to write about it, but then I had computer problems (random and increasingly frequent reboots) for a few days (fixed by disabling the onboard sound and installing a sound card), then coming home brain-dead from a script I was working on at work.
