small is tall, black is white

the world's energy problems can be solved by attaching a generator to orwell's spinning corpse. if you haven't read 1984 since the selection of rove's handpuppet, read it. get the nice hardcover from the library, as the $3 paperback is astoundingly poorly printed.

anyway, when my small drip coffee was delivered, the clerk dutifully called it a 'tall'. I commented to the wife about it, and she says "they probably get docked if they call it a small". From there, the gears started turning.

Starbucks' naming is the thin end of the wedge. Once we start accepting that small is tall, we'll believe whatever they feed us on fox news.

I heart big brother.
