*If It Weren't for McDonald's I'd Be Dead

Strawberry shakes. Mmmm.

Cool and soothing. Mmmmm.

Dairy, so doesn't help phlegm-wise, but too bad. Mmmmmm.

And in related news, I made my first purchase of cold medication since the passing of that restrict-NyQuil-from-sick-people-in-an-attempt-to-curb-meth-production law. Had to show my ID, give my phone #, answer drug allergy questions (??), sign on the electronic pad, and promise my first-born in order to get 12 little NyQuil caplets. Fools! Little do they know I probably will never have a first-born, so they're not getting that! Ha-ha!

"You could put joke of them"? Yeesh. PIMF.

I think in most states, if you have no children; 'first Beamer' is substituted for 'first born'.

Back in the 80's it was rumored that McDonald's shakes contained no dairy and, ergo, were not allowed to use the term 'milkshakes' because of it. Not sure how true that is, but they certainly do contain some sort of emulsifier.

That law is idiotic. We have it in West Virginia now as well, and the junkies will just find a way around it and keep blowing stuff up, staying awake for 43 hours straight all "Wheeeeeee!" and stealing balances from already underequipped microbiology labs. Not necessarily in that order.

But anyway, what Larry (minus his brother Darryl and his other brother Darryl) up there said, go through drugstore dot com. They're lovely, like flowers and kittens and fuzzy peaches.
