Thanks for visiting!
Ach! I’ve been tagged!
I don’t know why it is, but I don’t seem to do meme well. Usually I just give a little wave as they go flying by. Sometimes more than once.
But for some reason, this time with the Starbucker Meme, I’m in.
Here’s the “rules” for this one:
Here’s an opportunity to let your creativity flow. Tell us:
1. How full is your glass?
2. What kind of glass is it?
3. What’s in the glass?
4. Reasons for #1, #2, and #3
Ok. Now for my answers.
- Bottomless!
- Definitely a coffee mug (my current favorite is a memento from our last visit to Wisconsin)
- Hi-test fully caffeinated coffee (with a little half & half and something sweet)
- I’m usually running wide open from project to project, often with very little sleep. The coffee helps keep me going. So we keep it free flowing like a bottomless cup. And I like to have something I can hold hold onto so that handle on the mug works well for me.
And now Look Out! ‘Cause I’m going Tag-Happy! Making up for lost time, I guess.
So I’m tagging the following wonderful folks to share with us in this meme. Raise your glasses high (and tell us about them while you’re at it!) 
(And thanks Liz for the cool bloggy tag button.)

Well .. as Guy Cabellero once said to Edith Prickley … Damn You Edith Prickley! Damn You Edith Prickley!
However, I played along anyway
I should have known that a hard workin’ guy like you would pick a coffee mug! Thanks for jumping in Chris - I think you’re a meme “natural”. All the best!
PS: I remember visiting Smith Bros. when I was in the Boy Scouts (that was a long time ago) - thanks for the memory!
Hart, I think you are about the only guy I know who can write me a joke that I absolutely DO NOT GET and yet make me laugh out loud in the process! How do you keep doing that? (But please don’t stop.
)
Terry, Smith Bros. is no more as a restaurant, if you can believe that. My Mother-in-law waitressed there for 30 years. And now most of the building is vacant except for a coffee shop in one corner that owns the rights to the name. (I guess Google Maps isn’t Holy Writ, eh?)
It was an SCTV episode (the show with Bob & Dog Mackenzie) .. about the internal workings of a SCTV TV special .. that was mocking Charleton Heston scene in the Planet of the Apes when he saw the Statue of Liberty. Many Canadians didn’t even get that joke t the time
I thought it might be popular, since their “Two-Four” anniversary was out (referencing a double case of Molson Canadian Beer, eh?) lol //
Glad I could make you laugh!
Ooooh, I’m gonna have to get you back. =O)
Thanks for the tag, it sounds like a fun one.
Hart, I shoulda known it was a veiled reference to Charleton Heston. (Don’t know how, but somehow I probably should have. Hmmm.)
Margaret, I suspect I might be doing a bunch of waving in the near future. But then, you never know…

Too bad about Smith Bros - it was such a popular, busting place as I remembered it. Going from Cudahy to Port Washington was like going to another country for me at that age! Ah, progress……
Yeah, Terry. There must have been 4 or 5 people each day I sat in the coffee shop who came in and asked what happened to the restaurant. The folks there must get tired of explaining that all day long!
