MORE THIEVERY AT 7TH AND MONTANA ...

                             

Tongues were wagging at 7th and Montana this morning as an Artistic Vigilante arrived on the scene with copies of a Homemade Wanted Poster designed to help Authorities nab Our Notorious Neighborhood Newspaper Thief.  "Wanted:  Paper Thief.  Steals the LA and NY Times from Starbucks at 7th and Montana ... Reward," read the Poster-in-Question.  Sadly, it had little effect.  "Look, there goes the Newspaper Thief," cried Amtech Jeff, pointing at a Gentleman who had just poked his head into Our Favorite Starbucks, reached into the Newspaper Bin and snagged a copy of the L.A. Times before our very eyes.  "Nope," I responded, "Wrong thief."  Moments later, the right thief arrived, but he, too, seemed unphased, despite the fact that the Artistic Vigilante even placed a copy of the Wanted Poster in the basket of his Getaway Bike.  As for me, I can't help wondering why Starbucks doesn't do something about this Constant Shoplifting.  Then, again, I guess if they're robbing you blind, you don't care so much about the Daily Newspaper, anymore ...!

There should be a law against overpriced coffee, Starbucks!!  Gee, I haven't been since my all time fav PSL (Pumpkin Spice Latte) went out of season.  Oh well, come October, it'll be back...and so will I!

How about Alan Keys for V.P.?    He is conservative, wise, black, and a wonderful man.   Come on  McCain.
