Panera Bread Is The Largest Provider Of Free WiFi
ayb11 writes "According to this article, the Panera Bread chain of Bakery/Cafes (think Starbucks that bakes their own bread) is the largest provider of free WiFi in the US. Their web site says, " There are currently 573 Wi-Fi enabled Panera Bread bakery-cafes, from California to Virginia. More are added every day." (Even my retired dad takes his barely-used laptop over there so he can get free refills on coffee.) Their full list of hotspots is here."
I don't know about anyone else, but I can't stand to sit in one of those restaurants for more than 5 minutes. The one I went to in the Manassas VA area had staff members screaming people's orders at the top of their lungs. I became so irritated by the constant barrage of "NUMBER 8! TURKEY ON RYE! YOUR ORDER IS READY! NUMBER 9! ROAST BEEF! YOUR ORDER IS READY" that I threw my sourdough french onion soup in the trash and walked out. Is it this way at other stores?
The ECFA wants YOU... to join the GNAA/ECFA troll group. Just find a public internet spot, and post either recommended troll (posted below) or an alternate one of your choice. You can still use the "classic" GNAA post, but keep in mind that GNAA now stands for Great Negro Assocation of America

This "early post" is brought to you by the ECFA (Euthanasia for Canis Familiaris Association). We are an organization dedicated to the eradication of dogs. ECFA (Euthanasia for Canis Familiaris Association) is committed to protect our oxygen, to clean our streets, and to curb noise pollution - through the simple eradication of canine pests.
We have recently "connected" with the GNAA to form one ECFA. Stay connected. Please note that since we are moving to a larger demographic (the untold scores of people who deal with dog messes, noises, and annoyances daily), most of the current GNAA content is offline. In fact, we're pulling all of it except the "early post", which is now a ECFA-style "early post". The traditional GNAA "early post" will continue to be posted on all SCO stories, as insisted by upper GNAA management and its core team of fans. The illicit images and language will not be a part of the new combined organiztion. We do not condone any sexual lifestyle or race.
Have you ever stepped in DOG DOO-DOO
Are you MAD?
Do you KILL DOGS?
Are you a MAD DOG KILLER?
If you answered "YES" to any of the above questions the ECFA (Euthanasia for Canis Familiaris Association) is for you! You no longer need change your skin color or sexual lifestyle in order to become a member of an "EVIL TROLLING ORGANIZATION." Instead, you can work toward the noble of goal of INCREASING OUR SUPPLY OF O2! OVERPOPULATION of DOGS is RAPANT in this country. Did you know that DOGS turn BENEFICIAL O2 into CO2 simply to gain their energy to bark, drool, and howl? They ACTUALLY BURN OUR OXYGEN SUPPLY!!! One dog easily waste the Oxygen output of ten mature trees! This country has MANY UNWANTED, ABANDONED DOGS that WE ARE PAYING MONEY TO KEEP ALIVE. We are FEEDING them our food supply while making the homeless STARVE! Are you TIRED of having your TAXES increased? Humane Societies cost our country over $100 million annually. By using a Dog Killing Gadget, a dog can be turned into beneficial food, helping us all. We let children go hungry yet feed our **UNWANTED** dogs like royalty.
One dog can output over 10 lbs of droppings daily. One dog can aggrivate the allergies of untold numbers of people with its fast growing hair and all too common dandruff. Do you own a dog? Are you tired of its mess? Don't feel like planting ten trees and waiting 10 years for them to reach maturity? Then get it euthanized. Euthanasia is a painless way for a dog to... terminate. However, it can be too expensive to buy these drugs for the LARGE NUMBER of DOGS in the HUMANE SOCIETIES. It is thus proposed that these dogs be turned into food for the homeless. One dog can feed up to five homeless children for one day.
Many have wondered the best way to exterminate dogs. Euthanasia is by far the most clean method, but it taints the meat and is cost prohibitive. Thus, the most economical method is our K9Zap product featured on TechTV ($29.95), which deals a fatal shock to a dog up to 60lbs. Alternatively, the slightly messier bakers chocolate approach costs only about $0.30 per pound of dog. For more information, reply to this message or contact Gadgets for the Elimination of Dogs (GED). A rifle also works wonders, but may be against local codes, and is generally best to avoid in dog elimination.

Dude, fuck the sandwhiches. I always get a bread bowl full of chicken soup and a diet Jones' root beer. And it's like 5 bucks. Panera is awesome.
