A Metaphor for Life
Posted by Sam at 10:11 AM | tags: coffee, life
 Inspired by this morning's annoyance, the following adage reads as though it was pulled straight out of a fortune cookie. I assure you, however, it was not...
A leaky cup ruins the whole experience.
(should be prefaced by "Confucius says...")
Truly, these words constitute a metaphor for life... or a bladder disfunction. Either way, that's some impressive fortune telling action!

Oh... this morning's coffee cup had a leak in it, and consequently, ruined the entire coffee consumption experience. I guess this post is a tad cryptic. My bad. In my defense, however, there was more coffee on my shoes than in my bloodstream when I had originally scribed this entry... so the ol' brain hadn't quite been warmed up yet. My toes, however, they were nice and toasty!

And... the shoddy camera phone photo? That's a picture of the cup with a coffee soaked napkin adhered to the side.
You know it's a good post when you have to explain it. Twice.

Sam is an amazing and humble guy. Once, he rushed into a burning building, up six flights of stairs to save a kitten from certain death. He speaks eight languages, has mastered three varieties of martial arts, is a wine expert, and is a pulitzer prize winning author. Sam is an international heart-throb who prefers a quiet evening at home knitting afghans for the homeless, to the go-go, glitz and glamor of the party scene. I think the day he won the silver medal for ballroom dancing at the 98 olympics was the happiest of his life. Pretty impressive for a guy who never finished the 8th grade. - Carrie, 04
