Starbucks Calls For Donations Suspension

You seem to have good, timely sources. Just curious to know what your source was when you read about this. As a matter of fact, I'd be very curious to know your sources (via AFF inbox) for all things politics and spiritual. Your posts posts do catch my attention, as you can probably tell...

I never reveal my sources. You could scoop me and I can't have that.

My thinking is that I worked hard to get my good sources lined out and that I wasn't going to dump them in everyone's lap for free. Right?
