{ Oh Yeah }

And my new favorite indulgence

*RightNOW* is the
Toffee Nut Latte
at Starbucks.
Just saying.

Yes, I know I talk a lot about coffee stuff, but I love it. It makes me a just a little bit happier everyday. We all have our little "things" like that -- and CoffeeStuff is mine.

And some awesome quotes from Starbucks "The Way I See It" cups- Even if you don't like Starbucks, these still hold power in their words:

The Way I See It #273
All children need a laptop. Not a computer, but a human laptop. Moms, Dads, Grannies and Grandpas, Aunts, Uncles – someone to hold them, read to them, teach them. Loved ones who will embrace them and pass on the experience, rituals and knowledge of a hundred previous generations. Loved ones who will pass to the next generation their expectations of them, their hopes, and their dreams.
-- General Colin L. PowellFounder, America’s Promise – the Alliance for Youth.


The Way I See It #280
You can learn a lot more from listening than you can from talking. Find someone with whom you don’t agree in the slightest and ask them to explain themselves at length. Then take a seat, shut your mouth, and don’t argue back. It’s physically impossible to listen with your mouth open.
-- John MoeRadio host and author of Conservatize Me.


The Way I See It #281
I’ve never bought the “lowest common denominator” image of popular art. Too many artists worry that popularity is the same as being “middle of the road.” I’m much more into the idea that the middle is the highest point. On a map, the center of a mountain is its peak. You need to climb very high to get there.
-- Dan WilsonMusician. His songs can be heard on Starbucks Hear Music™ station, XM Satellite Radio Channel 75.


The Way I See It #283
The most important thing in life is to stop saying “I wish” and start saying “I will.” Consider nothing impossible, then treat possibilities as probabilities.
-- David CopperfieldEmmy Award-winning illusionist and founder of the charity Project Magic.



The Way I See It #237
It’s relationships, not programs, that change children. A great program simply creates the environment for healthy relationships to form between adults and children. Young people thrive when adults care about them on a one-to-one level, and when they also have a sense of belonging to a caring community.
-- Bill MillikenFounder and vice chairman of Communities in Schools, author of Tough Love and The Last Dropout.
