Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream Disaster

I decided to try some Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream, so I picked it up at County Market.
It was definitely frozen. Ice crystals had formed throughout the product making the texture very offensive. I can only guess that it had been either melted then refrozen, or frozen at a temperature so low that ice chunks formed.
The purchase of ice cream at the grocery store now ends, forever.

Smoking Ban Violation Reports

The smoking ban has become a convenient target of business owners who refuse to open their eyes and face the inconvenient economic truth. Having so few smoking ban violations reported is evidence that more people are quitting, not because of the ban, but because they simply cannot afford to smoke anymore. The ban merely served as the final straw in the minds of those motivated to quit.

There’s much more that people can no longer afford to do here, like eating out, going to movies, or signing up for their employers insurance plan which requires a deduction from a paycheck. So, when you hear someone complain about the smoking ban ruining his business, he’s probably just talking in his sleep.

You Better Count Your Chicken McNuggets!

I went to McDonald's on Chatham road near Wabash this afternoon around 2:00 and ordered a 10 piece Chicken McNuggets.

I never use the "drive-thru," because like Joe Pesci's character in Lethal Weapon II, "they f#@k you at the drive-thru."

I went up to the counter. besides the drive-thru traffic, there was only one person in front of me and nobody behind me. I didn't do anything out of the ordinary and it appeared that everything was running smoothly.

I only ordered the Chicken McNuggets. No sauce or anything else. When I got the bag I walked out. It felt a little light, so I looked inside.

There were eight pieces, not ten. So, what did I do? I walked out without saying a word, because I would rather write about it here.

When you go to McDonalds and get Chicken McNuggets, stay at the counter, open the box in front of the person who gave you your food and count it and say "I read on the Internet that someone got shorted on their food order."

If you happen to be at the McDonalds on Chatham near Wabash, say "I read on the Internet that someone got shorted on their food here."
