Coffee = high gas prices!

Gas prices are rising and traffic is consistently nightmarish. Why? I used to blame things like aggressive driving, gas guzzlers (especially SUVs), overcrowding. But according to this MSNBC article, it’s all the fault of Starbucks. That’s right, coffee is the culprit of traffic nerfdom!

Actually the article is not that harsh, but it makes an interesting point, that in an effort to escape the rush and stress of mornings, people are willing to go out of their way, take a break on the way to work, and stop to smell the coffee.

Mmmm…coffee……
