I Have Rented a Mug! (And I’m Happy About It)

Is it just me...or at the folks at Diabolos a little... "questionable content"-esque sometimes? Don't worry ya'll. It’s charming. Don't change. Ever. And keep it up with all that Soko on the speakers. Soko never gets tired. (side note: why do people who sell beverages prized for their energy giving qualities--re: coffee and tea-- always play mellow music? It just seems like a big marketing confusion.) *What I'm thinking about right now* ---> coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee Tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea tea Coffee... coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea  coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea  coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea  coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea coffee tea -----> this is my mind on mid-terms. And what does it really equal? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ (in change, that is) =(   ----> this is my mind on min. wage. (frowny) hmm, solution though. Yes. Really. Let's watch an English Major do math... Diabolos (JCR [University College]) + $6.00 = a special little mug....OF MY OWN! And it's no ordinary mug. It's a super special very magical wonderful mug that is helping me not only save the world (reduce wasteful paper cup use! yes!) but also taking off 25 cents from my coffee/tea purchases at Diabolos. Look ma, I'm being economical and ecological...at once. Suddenly I’m remembering Stephan Dion's "green collar" thing. *Onslaught of election emotions and memories* ---> stream of consciousness narration. Augh! Too much Virginia Woolf! So...basically I'm renting a mug right now. And it feels like a really good idea, but that could be the caffeine speaking... (did you KNOW that tea [now, 85 cents for me!] has more caffeine than coffee [now $1.00 for me]!? It's true. I read it once on Wikipedia. And wiki never lies) Oh, and in honor of that one Diabolos Barista that keeps on playing Soko.....I give you.....SOKO! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25AsfkriHQc
