I don't think I've been to MickeyD's in years... I did however recently get
this monster order of KFC Chicken Lol...with all the works... we were coming
back from Binghamton to home in Ithaca  - which is about an hour trip...we both
had drs' app't with our family doc, for  'the yearly rip off med. exam' ...and
I was starving - we hadn't eaten all day and by the time the appt's were done,
it was after 4:30pm.

Talk about slow service though.. our appt's were for 2:45 and 3:00 pm (just
enough time for the doc to see us and exclaim, "you are healthy "). When
he took so long to see us, we had just said to each other, "If he's not in here
in like 5 minutes, we'll just leave...".

Lucky for him he -just- made in the examing room with moments to spare.
Ridiculous over booking...

Another one we don't normally go to.. I guess I'm always afraid of where these
companies get their beef.. notice I don't care about the chicken (or that day
at least I didn't haha).

Oof.. can't change the colors, or just too lazy? :) I have the bbs set to black
background with gray text in messages... works for me :)

Take care,
