the good lands, the bad lands, the any where you may want me lands

If I may call upon the sagely wisdom of you all this morning. I am puzzled with the following....being a frequent flyer at that well known brand of high street convenience coffee emporiums, Iam wondering if I am being short changed or even shafted when enjoying my rich roast Americano. Its all about clouds in my coffee guys, are we still getting clouds in our coffee or have they gone the way of our dreams?

Always keep one eye in the mirror. I find that helps.

If you're getting 'white clouds' in your coffee, I would suggest there is possibly more 'Columbian' and less 'rich roast' in the cup!

I still have clouds in my coffee until at least the third cup.

By that time things tend to be either much clearer - or I'm past caring!

The clouds are in our minds and not in the coffee at all. Standing in the queue so long before being served, coupled with the mind numbing music induces a state of hypnosis. By the time the barrista takes your order and you finally receive your drink it no longer matters if it is coffee or not.

Which is all well and good, untill someone starts using 'brown sugar'.

Thats when the doo doo really hits the spinney thing. Lol

That's all very well, but I have always wondered who the song was written about, and did they think hey, that song is about me!

Personally I take my coffee back and complain when there are clouds in it

"In a 1989 inter_iew Simon acknowledged that the song is a little bit about Warren Beatty but said the subject of the song is a composite of three men from her L.A. days. In a 2007 inter_iew Beatty said, "Let's be honest. That song was about me." Simon has said that Beatty had called and thanked her for the song."

Really, I always understood back in the day when I was young and it was a hit that it was about Warren Beatty.

Oscar Wilde? I have never heard that one! She stated in an inter_iew that it was made about 3 men. The most likely known candidate is Warren Beatty.

I never heard the Oscar Wilde theory either... But never have found out who the other 2 men were....

Going to have more coffee and think about clouds
