The Starbucks Generation

Monday, 02 November 2009 09:24 Written by Administrator

I recently was transferred to southern California and on my way to work I decided to stop by Starbucks to get a cup of my favorite java. Now mind you, this is 6 am in the morning and I am barely awake headed to a early morning meeting with India.

As I approached the front door there was a several small groups of teenagers congregated. They all had some form of frappuccino this or that. All giggling and cutting up as teenager do.

I went in side and got in line. To my surprise I was probably the oldest person in the shop and certainly old enough to be some of these kids father if not grandfather. Again they were all carrying on as teenager do. Laughing and generally having a good time.

Happy New Year 2008

It interesting that at the end of the year we need to recap where we have been, where were going and what not to use in the coming year.

Yes we all want the old year to go away so we can forget all the bad things that happened; like the financial meltdown, the raging war on 2 fronts and lets not forget the outrages gas prices. It is all history now right?

To those who collect the stat’s on everything from hairdryers to who makes the most money I say enough. History doesn’t just start and stop. It is on-going and never ending. The calendar we use to judge when a year ends or a new one starts is after all perpetual right? Or did I miss something when I was in grade school!

Happy Holidays

In the spirit of Christmas we have updated our theme yet again. Wait there is more. Actually there are 3 themes all full of color and holiday cheer!

Normally we would have caching turned on that seams to block user changes so from now until the new year we have turned off caching to allow you to change from Default to Blue to Purple. Give it a try. Just click on the little colored boxes at the top right of the screen.

We have also added some more features like the fly out photo art gallery. We decided to do away with the rolling slide show for the moment as it seams to take a lot of resources. So we are revamping a little to make it faster.

Here at Xanluna! we are busy preparing more changes that we hope will continue to enhance your viewing pleasure. We are working on yet another theme we hope to introduce in January. Sooner if we can find the time. However you know the Christmas holidays are right around the corner so we have gifts to finish for those who ordered from our very own Santa’s workshop over at the On-Line Store.

So stay tuned for some exciting changes soon. We want to thank all, for the nice comments from our readers and wish everyone a safe and happy holiday along with a wonderful New Year.
