How many calories do you need to take you through the night?

Team SURFBoard is very mesmerized by the icecream machine in the lounge. There is some discussion about how all our snacks are going to make people fat. We're steering those folk towards the popcorn and the fruit.

An interesting coffee discussion has erupted. Jim tells us of a time in California when he was at a coffee shop and a person ordered a decaf one and a half caf mocchachino. Being the good MBAs that we are we instantly plunged into a heated chat about the logistics involved with making a half shot of espresso. Then someone pointed out that perhaps the entire shot is made but only half is poured. Which led to the inevitable financial chat about if the customer would be charged for the entire shot or in fact, half price. Which means that there would have to be a half caf button on the cash register which would throw all the checkout people off. But then is it ethical to charge the customer for the entire two shots? You can't not charge him for the half shot. Imagine the effect on Starbuck's bottom line!

Now they're talking about beer. Which I know nothing about. The words Sam Adams Cherry Wheat, Red Tail, freshness, college and jacket are being pandered. My expertise ends here.
