Assuming you could make it safe, probably. It would need a built in alarm, so you didn't forget about them for too long. It should be held closed by electromagnets, so that if the battery runs out it releases. There would probably be a ma

Would it be OK to sit there forever reading a book after buying a single cup of coffee? I would say it depends. In this case they don't charge for the WiFi, it just comes with your coffee. My reasoning is that most laptop users will use Wi

Hard liquor or alcopops. I read it as targeting men who don't really like beer, but drink it sometimes to fit in. "Drink Dos Equis: it doesn't suck as much as other beers."
