Wed Aug 22 2001

gotta love the mc d's scandal. pander hi-fat, death on a plate meals to overweight america and at the same time, make them feel they have a chance at winning moolah! (of course that's when hell hath frozen over!)

can i have a shakedown with that chocolate shake???

i say, boycott the clown, cook a meal at home, and play the real monopoly with your family & pets...

    You mean to say I won't get a

    MacMillion?

    I don't eat there anyway so I have lost nothing.
    Come to think of it
    I don't eat any place but home.

    Roll the dice franny. I want to put some hotels on the Boardwalk.

    In McDonald's defense (I can't believe I'm saying this) it wasn't Mickey D's that rigged the games, but some LA marketing company that they hired to do this promotion.

    Not that there aren't about a gazillion reasons to boycott the clown anyhow.

    i haven't heard about this. i'm shocked and mortified that mcdonald's would do such a thing.

    yeah, right. there are times like these that i'm glad i'm barely affected by advertising, but sad for those who succumb.
