Also overheard at the Petaluma, California Starbuck's

Some late 40-something female energetically barking into her cell phone, while seated near the picture window:

"Hello. Yesterday, I ordered fish oil tablets....yes...yes, that's right.  So I opened them and they're like -- horse tablets.  Yes, horse tablets.  I can't possibly swallow them.  They're too big.  Will you take them back?  You will?  Oh good!"

I'm thinking that perhaps they were seahorse extract.
