Your jealousy shines through again Don.

Have you received a picture of Harry's 36' Zimmerman like Lobsta' boat
yet?



Interested in lobster boats??

Yes, Harry's Lobsta' boat in particular. Aren't you the least bit
curious about Harry's Lobsta' boat? Does it exist? Did it ever exist?
Was it just another one of Harry's lies?

You should be talking to the poster here who was invited out on one of
Harry's boats.
If he had played his cards right, he could have solved your question.
Since I live way up here and have little chance of seeing any of Harrys
boats, I'll take his word on what he sails.

Don, I was invited out on one of Harry's boat's. It wasn't on his "Lobsta'
boat".

Why didn't you take him up on it? You could have done some close
investigating rather than accuse him of lying while you sit hundreds or
thousands of miles away.

He might have thought that I wouldn't have believed someone as short,
stupid, and ugly as he is would have been accepted into military
service. But I would have! :)

He's been caught in more lies than any politician ever!

What do you say to the fact that my wife contacted the head historian
of NYFD and the reaction was nope, never happened, no way, when asked
about a fireboat welcome for someone who made a trans-Atlantic trip in
a small boat?

On this day in 1955, Roy Croc opened the first McDonald's franchise in

Corporation.

I believe it was Ray Croc. First store was about 2 miles from my
childhood
home.

Any White Castles there? I was delivering papers on my bike when I
saw my first MacDonalds, around 79th and Jeffery.
There was an old White Castle a couple blocks east. I tried one of
the McDonald burgers - it was 15 cents. Liked the smaller White
Castle much better - it was 12 cents.
That was '59 I think. Maybe '60.
I still eat 8 White Castles once in a while, when I get the craving, 3
or 4 times a year. Of course I always regret it for a couple days.
Never cared at all for McDonalds. Best thing they have is the
breakfast sandwiches. I'll stop when we travel for that if that's how
our schedule is working, but otherwise stay away.
None of my kids got hooked on that, either, because I only took them
there if we were on the road.
A good hamburger is easy to make.
Now fried chicken - that's another story.

ps. I worked in Mac's marketing department for a couple years.
Corporate HQ in Oak Brook.
Amazing business, and a super operation.



Ray Croc bought McD's for the softserve milkshake machine patent at first.
Not for the burger and fries part. The good thing about McD's is the senior
coffee. Very good coffee and I have paid from $0.25 to $0.59 for it. Lot
better price than the big chains and better coffee also.

Try not to spill it, I hear its HOT!

AFAIK,

McDonald's (thee original) was one of the first restaurants to
make hamburgers, cheeseburgers and fries in advance of
the actual purchase, hence "Fast Food"

I've had the MickeyD's coffee and Ca Bill is correct, it is good coffee.
But...I hate going into the stores because the damned place always
smells like *heavy* fried food, even first thing in the morning, and
that aroma is a personal turn off for me.

I'm not a fan of the "boutique" coffee shops, because I find their
coffee too heavy or strong for my taste. So, when I am out and about and
need a caffeine fix, I just go into an ordinary sandwich/breakfast shop
and get coffee. Regular, ordinary coffee. I like WaWa coffee.

Good grief...talk about an *obsessed* little ****...no wonder Loogy is
toked up all the time. And he has a wife? I don't believe that.

I go through the drive through. Is one at where I have to turn on to the
major road near my house, so works out well when going somewhere with the
boat. Have to pass McD's to get to storage yard. If just morning coffee,
meet some friends at time at the local Donut shop.
