Walking into my local Starbucks this morning (they are currently promoting Paul McCartney's new album), they had an ISS-related trivia question written on the chalkboard - get it right, you got a free coffee. You can probably guess what the question was in connection with ISS and McCartney. So I got a free coffee, and knowing Starbucks, they'll be doing this same offer, same question, in many other stores. Nice to see them doing something space-themed! |

The lyrics certainly would be appropriate for an ISS docking, wouldn't they?! |

I went to starbucks in NY, NJ, CT and no one knew of giving away a coffee, some had trivia
pamphlet cards, that's all. |

Sorry to hear that - perhaps I caught the offer at the very tail end. |

Okay. That's enough time!
Over a year ago the astronauts aboard the ISS were treated to a live feed of a McCartney concert in LA. The two songs were "Good Day Sunshine" from 'Revolver' and "English Tea" from McCartney's 'Chaos and Creation in the Backyard', one of his best albums ever. |
