Basically I never want to step foot inside a fast food place ever again. Not that I ate it very often, but now I'm more committed than ever to eating REAL food. It does endorse In N Out Burgers, though. Once I learned that my stomach couldn't handle Popeye's anymore, I gave up fast food altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not in Chicago, either. I only get one sometimes when I go back to Phoenix. It's good, but not oh wow good. If I remember, part of the endorsement is because they treat their employees very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty good, but then I was really hungry after a long flight, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be even more committed to that after reading that book. Wait till you get to the part when they tell you what else is in the meat.

Mustard Death Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I'm reading... "The House of the Dead" by Dostoyevsky. Pretty hard to read, but worth it so far. Anyone else read this one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what went wrong? Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 (edited) I just finished Napalm and Silly Putty, by George Carlin, yesterday. I have about 6 sheets of paper covered in quotes from it now I just couldn't help myself; I had to write them down, because I'm not willing to buy the book. Here are two of my favorites: "A crazy person doesn't lose his mind. It becomes something more interesting." "The IQ and the life expectancy of the average American recently passed each other going in opposite directions."

GeddyRulz Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 "The Bean Trees" by Barbara Kingsolver. She's my sister's favorite author. I've already read Kingsolver's short story collection "Homeland," and that was okay. So now I'm giving one of her novels a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
