LIGHTS, CAMERA, INACTION AT 7TH AND MONTANA ...?!?

    

How many Starbucks employees does it take to change a lightbulb?  That was the question this morning as yet another light went out over the pastry counter at 7th and Montana.  The incident -- which occurred just days after Starbucks finally put an end to what many are calling the Great Lightbulb Debate of 2007 -- has immediately prompted cries of foul play among local insiders.  Is Starbucks trying to cover-up certain deficiencies in the Pastry Department or is something more sinister at play? The Lightbulbs-in-Question first attracted international notoriety last month when "Podgy Poof Gaz" -- a reader from the U.K. -- noticed that one of the lights was out.  After the bulb was finally changed three weeks later, he commented, "Ya just don't know how my sleeping habits are going to change from now on.  At last I can sleep at night!"  No doubt Gaz will find today's news a real eye-opener!

I often wonder about that. If all the bulbs go out, how would they know if there were a blackout?
