Hey isn't the Public Gardens supposed ot open on May 1st? Becaus eit isn't open.

It is a beautiful day. I just came back from a longish walk. Toward the end I realized that I didn't have sunscreen on and that my neck was exposed. I'll probably have an idiot burn tonight.

Thanks for all the fish.

It has been a beautiful day! Too bad I'm freaking exhausted. The wedding went beautifully and without a single hitch. My hair was very large and contained 40 bobby pins and, conservatively, a tonne of hairspray. Our dresses were lovely, and a split a seam on the bodice - I discovered this after the reception, and can only hope that it happened whilst I was dancing very enthusiastically to Paradise by the Dashboard Light with the groom.

Did you know that McDonalds won't serve pedestrians in the drive-through? Fascists.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I actually did know that. On the other hand, Dairy Queen will serve you at the drive-through if you're on horseback.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I think they probably have a safety issue. By discouraging such actions, it prevents human-auto interaction of an alarming nature.

Plus? Cars seldom can walk up to the inside counter.

However, my bank used to advertise they would serve anyone from the drive-up teller.

Perhaps McD has more lawyers.

Hmmm.. "It's 'To Serve Man' all over again!"

I think that years ago, in university, we were served once while pushing (and with someone riding in) a shopping cart.

Unfortunately the drive-through is the only part of McDonalds that is 24 hours. We were hungry, and dressed in formal wear. Do they serve people on bicycles or motorbikes?

A person's concepts should exceed their vocabulary, or what's a metaphor?

McDonalds will serve people on motorctcles. Bicycles, I'm less sure of. But one might argue that a vehicle is a vehicle.

I recall rolling up to the Taco Bell in Boulder with a friend in an imaginary car. Rolled down the imaginary window and everything. The guy looked mildly amused and just ran with it, maybe we just got a cool employee instead of a rulesmongering corporate stooge in training.

They actually open on the 5th. I guess the date it opens changes every year.

I just finished watching The Fellowship of the Ring. I wish that portions of the extended scenes had been left in because they help to explain a lot.

Bwah, I think the writers have been lurking in the Bureaucracy thread!
