      Get your facts straight. Apple dippers now come standard in all Happy Meals along with a very small carton of french fries.

        I haven't had a Happy Meal since the mid-80's. They outsell Burger King's entire menu? They out-distribute Toys R' Us in toys? Maybe it's time I revisit a Happy Meal and see what the fuss is all about.

          Wait, Dairy Queen pulls in $2.5 billion a year?

          How is this possible?

            I think the Happy Meal might be the greatest marketing gimmick ever invented.

              So with all of the hand-wringing about Happy Meals from McDonald's, on average how many Happy Meals does each American kid consume in a calendar year?

                Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

                            There is one in every small town in Texas and Oklahoma and Kansas. I'm sure they are all over the neighboring states as well.
                            "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                              Every now and then we split one with the family. But I look at all the people ordering a large blizzard with their burger and fries and I think "Wow, that must have a zillion calories".
