Ann walks out of her room, carrying her laptop.
“Sara, you ever have any coffee made on a Clover?” Ann asks Sara, who’s sitting on the couch drinking coffee and watching last night’s Daily Show.

“No I haven’t. Starbucks bought the company right? I suspect we’ll start seeing them all over.” Sara replies.
“There’s a coffee shop downtown that has one. $4.50 for a cup of coffee? Insane.” Tabitha says.
“Sue mentioned a place nearby her in New Jersey has one, and that you should try it.”
“I do like coffee…$4.50 though..is that worth it?”
“Probably not, but then again, how much stuff do you waste $4.50 on anyway? At least it’s something you enjoy.”
“Am I going to have to learn a new coffee machine at work? That’s no fun! Coffee is coffee isn’t it?”
“It is to me. I don’t even drink it very often.”
“Maybe I should visit Sue and try it out.”
“Sure, tack on a round trip New Jersey transit onto the price of the coffee.”
“I’d go visit Sue. I don’t know if I want coffee, but a coffee house is as good as any place to visit a friend.”
“I haven’t seen Sue in a while..” Tabitha muses. “Okay, I’m in.”
“For the coffee too?”
“I tell you what, you buy, I’ll try.”
“Scott?”
“New Jersey? I’ll pass. Tell Sue I say hi.”

Frank’s Fortune
Welcome to the 6th floor.
Today’s contributors are: Ann, Sara, Frank, Billy.
Subject: Frank’s Fortune
“I always feel so comfortably full after Chinese food.” Frank says, pushing his plate away from him.
“I always feel overfull. I don’t think I should’ve had that egg roll.”
“I told you I would’ve eaten it.”
“I know, I know. I should’ve let you.”
“There is always room for fortune cookies though.” Sara says, handing them out.
After opening and eating his cookie, Frank reads his aloud.
“The conclusion is the place you get when you’re tired of thinking.”
“Is that really a fortune?”
“Not really.”
“The conclusion is the place you get when you’re tired of thinking in bed. Doesn’t really work.”
“I dunno, it’s kinda zen.”
“I don’t think that’s zen. Just lazy. It’s not a conclusion if you don’t actually conclude anything, no matter when you stop thinking.”
“And who keeps thinking after you come to a conlcusion? That’s just redundant.”
“I think you’re over thinking it. It’s just a silly phrase.”
“It’s just making a statement that you can never know everything and once you stop thinking you stop learning.”
“Bah, this is too much learning from my dessert. Someone get me some Jello.”
