FoxTrot Classics by Bill Amend for August 17, 2020

when I go to Starbucks, it’s either the lemonade-like drinks (for summer) or hot chocolate (for winter)

Back in my first college years (1977 – 1981) $tarbu¢k$ used to have a special drink for students during mid terms and finals called the “Hammerhead” it was a double strength cappuccino, with a shot of espresso added to it.

A thirty-two-ple “cup” of espresso would cost about $56, and take over a half-hour to make.

Some friends and I went to an Italian resteraunt once, and after we had finished eating, one of my friends decided to try an espresso (he had never had one before). He liked it so much, that he asked for another. He couldn’t sleep that night, and hasn’t had espresso since.

Peter is SUCH a mungicake.

So what would be the appropriate word for “thirty-two-ple?” Does it even go that high?

I went to the Starbucks in Milan, Italy shortly after it opened. Even though it was clearly a consumer-ish “buy me!” tourist trap environment, the espresso was outstanding…cuz y’know, Italy.

Their coffee is to expensive and tastes like shampoo!

Peter will be up long time. For me no coffee I cannot stand the taste.

If you’re trying to cram for the final without ever having cracked open the book, start by reading the chapter headers, then skim any sections you don’t know and think will be on the test. You won’t have time for any more than that.

Just don’t get a 32-ply roll.

He’s not going to sleep for a week!

Backwards is a good idea. (I thought when I was at the université and then I hit the question number one at the exam)
