Annalisa... sheesh, not a fan. 

A couple weeks back she did a Guess the Connection quiz contest -- the prize was tix to the Outside Lands Fest -- and she played these:

Expresso Love - Dire Straits
Coffee Shop - Landon Pigg
Black Coffee in Bed - Squeeze

I wanted those tickets, but man, what the hell was the connection...?  Obviously the 2nd and 3rd songs are all about coffee, but Dire Straits doesn't mention coffee at all -- and there's no way she could be ignorant enough to think
that "expresso love" is the same as "espresso love"...

but yes, she was.... coffee that was her connection and some other lucky dude got through and rewarded her ignorance and won those tickets.

Ha, the expresso/espresso thing is one of my major copyedit pet peeves.  (I'm one of the career copy editors here, btw.)
