Hmmm. Is that Starbucks? Is that an ashtray?
BTW, nice wires. I like gray.

Naw. 7-11. Starbucks is too upscale for me, and its coffee is too strong
for my taste.

No, it's not an ashtray...it's a Garmin coaster.

The gray wire is part of the coaster alarm system. If anyone
unauthorized takes a drink placed on the coaster, you hear a
"whoop...whoop...whoop."


Did you get the upgraded model that automatically dispatches SW Tom to
the scene?


Naw. We don't allow anyone on board who is wearing more than a bikini or
shorts and a shirt and sockless sneakers, sandals or bare feets. Having
guys on board wearing work pants, black steel-toed shoes and white
socks...naw.


More likely fatigues and combat boots.
