I've often wanted to order from a fast food place,
compare my order to their photographic advert, and then complained. I haven't done it because I would be punishing the wrong people. It's not the local staff who are at fault. However, a class action suit would be fun, in real life as well as a TV comedy. http://www.richardfisher.com |

I was referring to the Way Back Machine from the Rocky & Bullwinkle Show of my youth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WABAC_machine I'm aware of the online wayback machine, but it wasn't what I was thinking about. -- DreadfulBitch There is no love more sincere than the love of food. ....George Bernard Shaw |
