I Live In My Car

My goal is to visit every Starbucks in the world - muuhahahahah!


Meet Winter. Although I think it's quite impossible and pointless, Winter has the goal of visiting every Starbuck's in the world. And yes, he's been to the Starbuck's down the corner from me. (For some reason, this kinda creeps me out.) Somebody please give him a job that will keep him in one place!

He's harmless, but apparently considered a social menace. Starbucks Corporate, of course, doesn't want anything to do with him. There're so up-tight. But if he disturbs some, he probably *really* scares them. All jacked up on java, he cruises our interstates and moves from Scrabble contests to T-Mobile hotspots, sleeping in his car (that he bought on eBay) at our revered Wal-Marts, and looking for cheap gas. A read of his journal is worth it if you've got absolutely nothing else to do. And I mean nothing else.

Everybody's got to have a hobby, I guess, but this guy's quest "simply to be different" is ironic - to be different he chose to visit thousands of the *same* place (he swears that they're not all the same). He actually cried because we were saying mean things about him on the Internet. Maybe, after 7 years of this kind of life, this Starbucks Stalker has finally found the fame he has sought and will settle down in Springfield, IL with his #1 fan, Schmoopie. You know, maybe make some little Schmoopie Winters? If she's willing to pay for it, I'm sure he's game. As long as there's Scrabble. Ah, a chance for a happy ending at last.
