I am happy to note that this blog has made it to 150 submissions. I have been working a lot lately, so I haven’t been as able to post regularly, but I’m going to make sure that for the near future, there will be two posts a day, thanks to a recent backlog.

And now that I have some money, I’ll be printing up some stickers and taking the time to poster for the site. So far we mostly have college students and tech people reading, and I am going to try to expand the readership

So look forward to more Overheard in Pittsburgh. We’re not nearly through with this city.

Crazy Mocha, Carnegie Public Library, Oakland.
A library employee approaches an acquaintance in line for coffee:

Staff: Oh, do you work here now?
Patron: No, I’m just getting a cup of coffee.
Staff: I see. A cup of “Joe,” a cup of “Java,” a cup of “mud.”
Patron: Yeah.
Staff: So, what’s your poison?
Patron: … Coffee.
