The following isn't from me; it's from Mike Petro, who is currently
unable to post directly to the NG (speaking of horror!)

The delicate pitter patter of the rain outside is soothing as it
gently touches down. You settle into the best seat in the house and
you can practically hear the screams rise from your cup. You cringe
in anticipation of the chemical harshness of Cafe Francais. You sip
and just for a few moments your mind takes over and you vomit
completely.
