SATELLITE SEATING ... AT 7TH AND MONTANA!

It was standing room only at 7th and Montana this morning. Why? Because a parade of ne'er-do-wells grabbed some of the chairs from Our Favorite Starbucks and moved them up 7th Street. First came "Beer Hall Barney." Barney arrived by bus, with a bicycle and bag of groceries in tow, and wasted no time dragging one of the few available chairs up 7th Street. He waited until he thought no one was looking, then whipped out -- and guzzled -- two cans of beer in quick succession. Then came Time-Out Timmy (pictured below), a portly gentleman who moved his chair by the dumpster behind Starbucks. For added privacy, he swiveled around to face the dumpster. "I guess that's the latest trend," said Joyce, "Satellite Seating!" Maybe if we're lucky, their next seats will be aboard the Sputnik ...!
