STARBUCKS' business may have bottomed...
A top executive explained that STARBUCKS' business had become as black and
burnt out as the sludge at the bottom of a cup that's been left up on a
commuter's dashboard in the sun all weekend.



He further added that dealing with the many store closures during the recent
international economic volatility had left Starbucks' top executives as
burnt as the taste of the coffee itself.



The CEO was completely steamed and denied that he was milking the company or
its products. He loudly proclaimed: "The cup is NOT half-empty, it is
half-FULL...and filling up! And the refill his free! Yeah, you'll have to
wait a while -- there are many others already in line for the free money of
the Wall Street bailout. The damned line extends all the way outside the
United States Treasury!"



He referred to the long line of supplicants from financial institutions
awaiting their morning Treasury bailout latté - each demanding a
triplé-grandé. The line indeed stretched on and on for miles all over
Washington DC. -- a Starbucks representative, however, strategically located
at every block.
