Oh Dave! That posts reminds me... So remember when I said Cheese only has sweetened green iced tea and unsweeteened plain black and tropical passion fruit? They got rid of the sweet green. Now only unsweetened iced teas. At least at mine. I am unsure if this is at all (my guess is that it's not).
Also,

I'm a northerner. We drink unsweetened iced tea- often with a lemon and sometimes with artificial sweeteners.
Woah! Pump the brakes!
Don't lump me in with the artificially sweetened iced-tea drinkers of the North! If it's good tea that I'm making, I pretty much always drink it hot. No sweeteners. I'll drink Arnold Palmer Iced Teas every once in a while though.
Also, get that damn lemon away from my earth juice.

Who's going to make the poll? It's time for bonzai to go.
Concerning the money thing, the sponsors are the ones who make it possible for any of the events to even happen. They have the ability to pressure the IOC to move the Winter Olympics elsewhere (like Vancouver.)
Concerning the athletes, I hope they will do the right thing and demonstrate support for the LGBTQ community in Russia, IOC's ignorance be damned.
Personally, I think there's a potential that people are going to be detained left and right and the whole thing will turn into a crisis. I guess you could argue that Russia wouldn't want the negative PR, but I honestly don't think they even give a shiz about what everyone else thinks.
The sponsors certainly have the ability. If all the major corporations involved with the Olympics threatened to pull sponsorship over this, you might see something. But that's not ever going to happen. There's no incentive! Are people going to stop drinking Coca-Cola because they're a sponsor of the winter Olympics? F*ck no. Even when people organize these boycotts, they don't work. Remember Chick-Fil-A? Their sales WENT UP after the flap about their homophobic bullsh*t. And unless they face massive boycotts which will negatively hurt the bottom line, these massive companies (many of which have already paid money to Russia to help develop the Olympic infrastructure, not to mention sunk millions in advertising efforts across the globe) aren't pressuring anyone to do anything.
And I'd wager there won't be a single high-profile gay athlete who boycotts. You might get someone who isn't really a contender who opts to do so, simply because they have more to gain by making a name for themself as a brave face and a Good Story than they do by competing. But the top-flight athletes are serious competitors. Rather than boycott, they'll compete, then a) consider victory against the backlight of the Russian geopolitical climate the best form of demonstration, b) make some sort of subtle protest (painted nails, etc.), or c) wait until they're done, then give interviews about how horrible the whole situation is, thus doing their part to raise "awareness." That's it.
And I'd also wager that not a single Olympic athlete will get detained. Russia isn't stupid. They realize they risk a major international incident were that to occur. They're talking tough now because they need to - they don't like the rest of the world telling them they're backwards and f*cked up, so they respond by saying "f*ck you, we do what we want."
It'd be a shame if not one athlete, gay or not, refused to make a demonstration. I can understand waiting until after your competition is through, but I'd hope some would have the courage to make a statement, at the very least. I've found some of the comments from the athletes, especially that one gay figure skater (can't recall is name), to be particularly bothersome. The attitude some seem to have is "My dreams and goals are more important than the fact that people are being kidnapped, tortured, and, in some cases, murdered in this country for who they choose to love."
I don't think any athletes will be detained, but I'd wager some fans will be. And it's not just the detention that's worrisome. It's the vicious attacks against gays that I find most disturbing.

I'm going to have to say that Dunkin's regular ol' coffee tastes like burnt garbage. I like their iced coffee though. But they ALWAYS screw up my order so I don't go there anymore.

Also, creepy story. My Dunkin is in a gas station. A few Saturdays ago I went in for ice. The guy goes, "Ohhh you're visiting me this time!" Bonz: "Excuse me?" Guy: "You always go get coffee, but never come over here!"

I'm scared to even look over to that side now.
That is super creepy!
And speaking of gas station Dunkin's, is anyone else seeing a lot of the serve yourself style one's popping up?

I've only seen one "Dunkin Donuts Express" on my way down to Roo in 2010. All I know was that it was somewhere in Virginia and a guy wearing a sleeveless flannel shirt and missing teeth tried to explain it to us when my friends and I gasped that we were confused (obviously we were confused by the fact it was Dunkin, not how to use it).

jeepers quacking CREEPERS! Yeah, I'm pretty sure you need to start going to a new Dunkies ASAP... three counties over.
Regular iced tea is already too sweet for me, so I seriously don't know how anyone can even stomach sweet tea. It's like liquid cotton candy, people! If I wanted something as sugary as a soda, I'd get a soda. Just gimme some plain ol' Darjeeling, oolong, pekoe, what have you - and no milk or sugar either, because I'm hardcore like that.
