So I had recently been poo-pooing the Mermaid over their World AIDS Day initiative.
It being today, they promised to donate a nickel for each 'hand crafted drink' that they sell.
Well, in the interest of avoiding as much of the chill that I could, I hopped off the 36 - Broadway a stop early at Lawrence, and ducked into the S'bucks for a piping hot latte, and to finish the P.G. Wodehouse I'd been burying myself in lately.
I collected my purchase, and settled into a cozy chair to get to reading, when I spied something quite disheartening, pictured above.
Damn, how could I accidentally participate in the exact campaign that I was slinging much dirt in the direction of?
Well, now I am looking for a remedy. Anybody with suggestions should feel free to post them here.
