“Nice” set of tats on the perps (She has a bunch, too. Look closely if you can. That isn’t a necklace). What is it with ink these days? I’m starting to think tats make you Honorary Amish. But I know and love friends that have them so I don’t know.

The last time I went to a McDonalds I ordered the same thing I always do. Two McDoubles (dollar menu) and a small coke. Well they repeated back to me two double cheese burgers (non-dollar menu) and a small coke. Well, I didn’t realize the mistake until I was rolling away from the screen. I tried to fix it at the window with the cashier. She said, “No, you said, two double cheeseburgers, and that is what your getting.” At this point I didn’t pay yet, so I simply just drove away. I felt bad, but what was I supposed to do, argue? This was about a year ago, never went back.

What the hell is wrong with that guy.

Pulling a shotgun and shooting at another car?

Everybody knows you drive back to the window and pull the moron who got your order wrong out of the window by the shirt collar, then stomp him in the ribs a few times with some good Carolina engineer boots.

Why are all these police officers wearing military combat gear? They are NOT military.

This sight pisses me off. It speaks volumes about where we’re headed as a (formerly) free nation.

The Mickey D’s around here used to ask you to pull away from the window and when your order was complete - they’d bring it out to you.

I would politely decline. “No Thanks.” The pimple face would stare at me blankly and go get the manager. The manager would ask me to move up and they would bring out the order. Again I would say; “No thanks.” He’d ask why and I’d explain.

One time a crew cheif wasn’t buying it. “We DO NOT get get the orders wrong! Move up!” I asked him what I’d ordered. He read it back to me. He got it wrong. “SEE!!!” I gave him what for. For sure.

That was then. Nowadays? They don’t ask you to pull up any more. And they are much better at getting the right order out on time.

What would happen if an innocent person(male or female) dressed in similar clothes, no weapons, and just strolled through a shopping mall or car dealership?
I’ll bet the Feds/Blues would find some excuse to detain(abuse) that person, search(ransack) his home and kill his dog(s)!

I bet they wish now that they’d have just ordered a pizza delivery to the trailer.

I propose we start a new FR photo feature: "Military or Police?"



What exactly is the purpose of camouflage uniforms on peace offices for the city of Wichita? Doesn't this photo make even the most pro-police of us a little uneasy?

I used to work at a McD’s in my college days and customers can get REALLY nasty if their fast food isn’t perfect and as fast as they want it.

Take it from me. I try never to talk to him before he’s had his cups of coffee. It’s dangerous!

They’re modeling the latest in government unionwear by the designer Jean Rambo…

His whole line is to die for.

The really bad news?

I'm just about out of Papua New Guinea. Woulda ordered it Monday, but The Coffee Bean sent me an email saying the they were having a 50¢ shipping charge special on Thursday.

So I waited.

No, I'll be OK, They are out when I go there in Firefox, but had it when I went to check back in Safari. I'll get it next Wednesday and can survive on vin ordinaire until then.

Free shipping, too.

Thanks though...
