This is starting to get out of hand. Is it just me or does this happen to everyone now? I drove through McDonald’s with the kids to get them lunch. Ella is the picky one, so I stopped their first for her meal.
One Happy Meal. That’s all I ordered. I get to the window and pay. Then the goof at the window says, “Would you mind pulling into spot #3 and we’ll get that right out to you?” We waited almost 8 minutes.
Andrew wanted Burger King, which is right next door. I order and get to the window. I pay and then they ask me to pull forward past the drive through and said they’d bring it out. Another 10 minutes before they brought out the order.
Why is this even acceptable? It is so annoying to me! There has gotta be a good reason….
I'm just a guy who likes the classics. I love Old Time Radio Shows. I love Classic TV. I love Classic Movies. I love songs from the "Great American Songbook". I dig songs from the first decade of Rock and Roll. Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to newer things. My musical taste ranges from Classical to Classic Rock and Country to Rap. I love a good book and am always looking for something to read. I tend to lean toward historical fiction, biographies, mysteries, and more.
I have always believed that our past (and the things we've experienced in it) make us who we are today. That being said, after reading through some old My Space blogs (yeah, that's about how long it's been since I blogged regularly), I decided that I should once again write. Welcome to my blog. I hope you find it interesting, thought provoking, and entertaining in some way.

So much for FAST food! It’s got to be annoying, especially with hungry kids in the car.
I, believe it or not, like McDonald’s…rare instances I have fast food , it’s usually them. But long ago it became clear they’re not ‘fast’ food anymore, especially if you actually go inside. Other chains are even slower though, I find.
I suppose it is a good thing that they aren’t grabbing a burger that’s been under a warmer for 60 minutes for you, but it used to be that the only thing you waited on was fresh fries.
yeah, I mean that’s it kind of. Now, with burgers I sometimes customize the toppings, so I can see it being a bit delayed, but if you want an ordinary Big Mac or fries, you’d think they’d have them ready to go, wouldn’t you?
