I macked out with the big mac

To get my brothers new blog going I've chosen to share my deepest feelings about McDonald's. Though that creepy clown at the front door scares the crap out of me I still go...through the drive-thru...for the dollar menu. Because of economy problems the dollar menu holds it's price but it's items are literally shrinking! This frustrates me. I'm a fan of the Hot Fudge Sundae. I maybe lactose intolerant but there are some things worth getting sick for. If the sundae gets smaller I feel less effects but my dollar has been wasted. For those of us making 10-15 bucks an hour and have bills such as a student loan, cell phone and so on...the dollar menu was our splurge. Take that from us and our 30 minute lunch break will be nothing more than a soggy peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I can currently recommend this restaurant for it's speedy service, price (if things don't get smaller), a promised smile from the server Juan (90th s. 40th w.) and the extra napkins when requested.

Thanks for the support. I recommend the cheeseburger from the dollar menu. It's a good solid meal...all the food groups are represented. Tell Juan hola for me.

Oh...totally random note. The big mac is actually used to measure international exchange rates. It's called the big mac index.
