bxgrl, this is exactly why I was debating with MM and a few others a while back why a fancy coffee shop with free wi-fi in crown heights is not a great idea – ie owner would have to charge high prices for coffee, muffins, etc. to have enough margins to absorb these lap top freeloaders
I loved how some of the laptoppers went and complained on Yelp-as if a business owner has no right to decide how he runs it. What is it with these people?
Sort of like when cell phones first came out and everyone would always have them in hand or on the table as if to say, “I’m very important, I own a cell phone!”
The laptop thing is sort of the same to me, “I have important business to handle, I am doing important work, check out my fancy new Mac, blah, blah…”
Go home and let me have a seat so I can drink me coffee and eat my damned scone at table.

THL, that’s a lot of house / sq ft – enough to house 5-6 kids running up & down the stairs

I wonder how the schools in Kansas City are and if I could raise a sophisticated child there?

Rob – I use it as a polite term of oprobrium w/ arseholes whom I know will get the drift but not the meaning. That & gonad are really good insults.
