5 Shots at Starbucks

This morning I went to the one Starbucks in town that has a drive-up window. Now the reason I go to Starbucks is because I am an addict and they have the legal drug that I crave (for the illegal ones I have to go elsewhere) but as I was ordering and using the Starbucks lingo/language I had a fleeting thought of wishing I never knew the words Latte, 5 shots, soy, vanilla, and venti. Yes, I want the java jolt but I feel like I have lowered my IQ just by being there and saying those words. But then all junkies know they have a problem and just want the rush. I was pondering whether in the future we will all have special language just for shopping like debit card, charge card, pin number, plastic or paper, etc and actual paper money will be extinct.

You Can Hear it on the AM Radio

My husband found this Select-A-Tenna gadget at the Goodwill (Charity shop for those of you not Americans) and it reminded me of the song by Everclear about listening to the AM radio. I wish I knew how to do that thing where you could just click on Everclear and hear the song because it's a fun one. This gadget says on a tag on the bottom that it will make your weak AM radio signal more clear and loud. What I am wondering is "Does anyone listen to AM radio anymore?"
