That picture makes me really want a chocolate muffin. Damn. (I am waiting for a delivery that so obviously is never going to arrive and thus cannot leave the house. :( )

Oh, do you know the muffin man,

The muffin man, the muffin man,

Oh, do you know the muffin man,

That delivers to One Microsoft Way?

I'll bet there are plenty of muffins. Just have everyone hold their keyboards upside-down, and shake :-)

So if I find the muffin thief, I get to say "me and a couple thousand friends[1] would like to CHAT" in a very Don Corleone tone of voice?

You might want to ask the Bungie folks... knowing those guys and their seriousness about snacks I'm sure THEY have an alternate muffin failover system. :-)

[1] I assume the muffinless pissed-off folks on the MS Campus are at least that many...

Oh man, I could not eat another muffin. I am so stuffed.

No, wait, yes I can. Mmmmmmm....

I get scared when it's muffin day around here, those greasy things can be irresistible but give me constipation like no other.

I wonder what they are gonna do with the muffin truck... Maybe some sort of bank heist involving giving drugged muffins to the guards?
