You have enough material for a book and you might have enough to "Clerks" a screenplay, though it's better to have the lead character work towards something.Writeprocrastinatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930301518671850256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23451718.post-1161424075297243342006-10-21T02:47:00.000-07:002006-10-21T02:47:00.000-07:00anonymous - too true.andy ming - glad it amused yo...anonymous - too true.<BR/><BR/>andy ming - glad it amused you!<BR/><BR/>marcus - yes, in america we have to spell EVERYTHING out for the dumb people. our cups even say "caution. the beverage you're about to enjoy is hot."<BR/><BR/>mellowlee - if he hadn't had asked the customer behind him i would have bet that he was doing it as a joke.<BR/><BR/>writeprocrastinator - haha, i'd love to see a seen like that in one of your scripts.<BR/><BR/>kiz - thanks to my stock widget i'm pretty up to date about bux prices.<BR/><BR/>ben heller - i think they either weren't hugged enough as children, or their sex lives stink ;)<BR/><BR/>girl with moxie - true! sometimes the ones too stupid to realize they're stupid end up being super successful.<BR/><BR/>sling - not trying to be a dingbat here, but are you talking about a car?<BR/><BR/>coffeypot - haha, i guess i'm not that evil. at least not at the moment!barista brathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15510119815921727298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23451718.post-1161405683302869572006-10-20T21:41:00.000-07:002006-10-20T21:41:00.000-07:00You missed your chance.

If he truly was this daft, I bet he'll end up richer than Oprah - it's the ones that don't overthink things that usually end up the most successful, in my experience/opinion.<BR/><BR/>IMO, people ask a lot of questions because interrogation is a classic power play. Doesn't matter whether they are at Bux ordering coffee or at Home Depot picking out paint. If someone feels insecure and powerless, they may compensate for this perceived lack of power by asking too many questions.Moxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16863337219007355663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23451718.post-1161347087215163242006-10-20T05:24:00.000-07:002006-10-20T05:24:00.000-07:00...something tells me that this guy shouldn't own ......something tells me that this guy shouldn't own a credit card--much less be engaging in stock trades.

The Bux corporation could have a little computer kiosk where Bux customers could load up on stock with their grandes. Then the thing could crash or the screen could freeze right in the middle of the busiest time of day, sending our beloved Brat over the edge.<BR/><BR/>One witness described, "it was horrible...she just snapped and randomly grabbed customers.
