I have been avoiding McDonalds lately. They have set up an ordering Kiosk. Unless it is cash, you MUST use it. Why? So as to rid the company of workers.....60+ year old workers.

Rediscovered BK's Bacon King and Onion Rings.

The McDonalds that I've been frequenting seems to be suffering from cost cutting as well. The last three times I've gone there I've only seen three employees: the obvious boss figure who seems to be having a heart attack every time he's around, the drive-through worker with the perpetual frown on his face, and the hyperactive girl at the front who somehow seems to be doing 90% of the actual work there.

There's a BK being built across the street that's supposed to open this month. Never been to one, gotta check that out.

I remember Blackrat talking about having to drive a long distance to go to BK so they did it rarely. I think he said there was a diner that sold American style food so that's where they went most often. If I recall correctly, you two don't live near each other so your experience may be different.

Well, this is a funny little country. You think, 5.5 million people, that's really small. But then you realize it's that amount of people in a place roughly the size of France or Florida (actually Florida is a lot smaller). It's not hard never meeting someone specific here.

I do hope Blackrat's doing ok. He hasn't posted here for a long time.

I have thought the same. I liked talking to him.

The metro Atlanta area where I live is over 6 million. We have several members like Ranger Wicket and daiglo. I haven't met any of them. I have met some from other states like Rel and others. Odd how that happens.

diaglo? I remember I said something funny about him once and he went and had that quote as his signature for the longest time.

Seems to be nostalgia time here at Eric Noah's 3rd Ed Extravaganza Multiplex Superdome.

He lives near Stone Mountain. Look it up, it has an interesting history and an uncertain future.

A caller on the radio said his porn name based on first pet name and first car would be Muffin Duster. LOL

This may come as a shock to some of you, but I've been known to make racially offensive remarks. I have even made them to or in front of the race in question. I do it to be funny and only when I know the person knows me. They know I'm being funny. I say this not to be lectured but to share a story I heard from my sister, and also to help understand where I am coming from.

My youngest niece and nephew were adopted from Guatemala as infants. They know little of their heritage. So thus begins the story. My niece went on a weekend trip to New York with her girlfriend's family. Some time during the trip they stop at a grocery store and witness someone shucking corn. My niece knew nothing of the process and was intrigued. Some one (not clear who) said to my niece that h er people do this all the time so she should know how. When my sister heard this she was upset. It seems the two girls have been on the outs for awhile now. At this point they are not allowed to see each other.

People that know me know that I rarely speak out of ignorance. If I do say something even remotely ignorant like the above comment it is purely in jest. Oddly the statement is true. Her people did shuck corn. My grandparents had a garden in which they grew corn. Us yougins had to help by breaking beans and shucking corn. But I wouldn't expect these Yankee carpetbagger know it alls to know that. It still upset me. I don't say stuff like that to kids because they don't understand. Now if they were older I might.

I want to go to the store and buy some corn so my niece and nephew can say they have shucked corn and their white family taught them how.lol
