Meat, glorious meat!

I love the FOF! During the Lent season McD's offers some great FOF specials. You can add a sandwich to your combo meal for 59 cents or make it a double FOF for a dollar. Nothing like a double stacked deep-fried fish sandwich loaded with tarter sauce.

Are you serious? We don't have enough Catholics around here to merit Lent specials.

Do you remember the McDonalds Rap they used to use in their commericals around 1989 or so?
Big Mac, McDLT, a quarter pounder with some cheese
Fillet-o-Fish, a hamburger, cheeseburger, happy meal....
I think they ran through the entire menu.

This was right after the "It's Mac Tonight" campaign with the singing moon. It was years before I found out that that song was about a mobster and not about a sandwich.

The McDonalds rap was great. They put a record of it in the Sunday newspaper so youth across the land could play it anytime. I was bummed because we didn't have a functional record player at the house so I was left out of the fun.

I know! I still have mine!

Okay, not really. But still, we had it and played it incessantly to bug my parents. (My punishment for this crime is the fact that I still know all the words to the rap.)

That's pretty scary. I no longer know the presidents in order, but by golly I've still got the McDonalds menu circa 1988.

Isn't it "may I have some more"?

No.

Big Mac, filet-of-fish, quarter pounder, french fry
Icey coke, thick shake, Sundaes, and apple pie.

Grrrrrr......now I have that in my head. I blame you.

I thought we were talking about two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, on a sesame seed bun.

Perhaps this should go in the Foyer, but I had to fight a spiritual battle after conference this afternoon. My son's high school athletics department had a meat sale fundraiser. One can buy various cuts of meat (typically in five- to twenty-pound slabs), and a butcher slices it up the way you want. Grade is choice or better. Should one shop on the Sabbath? My wife said, "No." But I had committed to support my son's swim and soccer teams, not to mention Cowboy and meat industry generally, so I went anyway.

I returned with about a dozen tenderloin filets, and around 18 thick Ribeyes. Oh, and five pounds of smoked bacon. Despite my wife's rebuke, I found the whole experience deeply spiritual.

I'm not much of a chef, but I read everyone's suggestions in this forum, and I'm looking forward to some serious grilling and pan frying. If you don't mind partaking of food purchased on the Sabbath, you're invited to join us in the weeks ahead.

This, my friends, is why PAC will always hold a special place in my heart.

Is anyone else digging lately on the $5 Footlong Subway jingle?

The tune is catchy and the dancers in the video are obviously very talented.

Our daughter is. She LOVES that song and commercial. She performs it for us about twice a week.

Glad you didn't listen to her.

Lol - my son and daughter too.

This is the McD's commercial I remember most, mainly becuase my older sister would play Fur Elise on the piano and sing the words along with it (with notable emphasis on the line containing the phrase "my dumb brother").

That jerk dad said "and MAYBE we'll all go to McD's." That's the kind of crap I pull with my kids, just to make sure they're listening. Get it in writing, kids.
