About a week or so ago, I'm working at good ol' Starbucks and a woman with her two middle-school age daughters walks up to the counter to order some Frappucinos. She tells one of the girls to pick out a gift card to give to their dad for Father's Day. The girl picks up one of our flowery summer cards. Mom says "Oh, I don't think Daddy would like that one..." So the girl picks up a Limited Edition Paul McCartney Starbucks Gift Card. A puzzled expression comes over her face.
"Who's this?"
"Oh, that's Paul McCartney, sweetie. He was one of The Beatles."
"The Beatles? Who are they?"
I just about had heart failure.
Life is pretty sweet right now.
Don't part with your illusions. When they are gone, you may still exist but you have ceased to live.
- Mark Twain
