New York Trans-Fat Ban Kicks in Full Gear Tomorrow

Trans fats are a health issue, but banning them is silly. Banning them isn't like banning smoking, which was done to protect employees and others impacted by second-hand smoke. Your neighbor at the next table gets no harmful runoff from your table if you order a trans fat laden dish. A better comparison would be banning the sale of trans fats to anyone under 18, ala cigarettes, which would prevent minors from being exposed to a health risk while allowing adults to make a harmful choice if they choose.

Can the New Starbucks Logo Just Wear a Turtleneck?

What's really lame is that's a censored version of the original logo, since the breasts are conveniently covered with hair that was added in. You can buy merchandise with the "real" original Starbuck's logo at the original store at the market in Seattle

Every Corsage Matches a Skittles Dress!

I think the Bow Wow Wow's I Want Candy is a more fitting match for that dress.

I wish better coffee was available within walking distance from my workplace ... I thought the original logo looked ugly, but I can't say that a mythical creature's anatomy is anything to get upset about. I don't think breasts traumatize children. I just don't.

I don't care about the boobs, like 50% of us have them. I just think it's ugly and brown and it doesn't make me want to drink coffee. BUT I do give them props for going back to the "original", the green logo is so disney. They should have made the originals boobs bigger, I bet people would have quit complaining:)
