If this is the same case I remember, reporters said it was some guy who worked at the company that made the game pieces. He gave the winning pieces to friends and relatives...
McDonald's fries would mess up my stomach but I would still go there for the game pieces. After the news hit, McDonald's went to some poor neighborhood (I think in Florida but it has been awhile since it happened) and gave away the winning ticket to a person of need. I am sure McDonald's thought it would help create good PR. It kind of pissed me off and I don't know if I have been back without my kids since it happened.
No. It was a golf tournament to raise money to fight childhood cancer.

pretty sure mcdonald's is gonna do ok.
User's name is very fitting. The Sting. Henry Gandorf would have pulled out after the first scam with a better payday.
I'm certain McDonald's can afford it, too.
Don't recall reading this in the article. Possibly I glossed over it. Is McDonald's awarding the prizes? Yes, the Big Macs and french fries and Coca-Colas. I mean the big prizes.
The reason I ask, there was a charity golf tournament in which I participated. As incentives, there were pro football players and and celebrities playing along in the foursomes, outstanding buffet lunch and supper, drinks, pretty girls on the drinks cart. And, if you got a hole-in-one on the seventh, you won a brand spankin' new GMC Yukon or something.
Some guy hit a hole-in-one on the seventh.
Except for one thing. It was supposed to be the eighth hole.
The insurance company insuring the prize refused to award the Yukon. The guy sued the charitable tournament. That was a revelation that a man I considered a peer would act so ungentlemanly. He won. After taxes and legal fees it was a Pyrrhic victory. If he hadn't behaved like a little bitch, things would have worked out differently.
I digress.
Curious. Whether it was an insured or a direct loss, I am thinking McDonald's was more concerned about the integrity of the game and their public image. -

Jumprope chant which my nieces sing today:
Lizzie Borden took an ax
And gave her mother forty whacks
When she saw what she had done
She gave her father forty-one
Late Thursday morning, August 4, 1892. Fall River, Massachusetts. The bodies of Lizzie's parents were found in the family home. Her step-mother suffered seventeen wounds to the back of her head. Her father, attacked while napping in the parlor, received eleven wounds.
The inquest began August 8. Lizzie's behavior was strange and her testimony contradictory. Probably due to the morphine her doctor prescribed. Lizzie was arrested on August 11. Her jury trial began June 5, 1893; she was acquitted June 20, after only an hour and a half of deliberation.
The sensational murder trial of the nineteenth century.
Had the Borden home been converted to a bed and breakfast and gift shop during my rebellious teenage years, I would have wanted to spend the family vacation in Fall River.- 1

People that don't let their cars warm up. As soon as they turn it on they're already in reverse backing up. Makes me cringe.
You are absolutely correct. And the proper way to warm up a car is to drive slowly through the neighborhood because you need to warm up the transmission fluid, too. I had to teach my wife to take the parkway along the river to warm things up before getting on the freeway because she is a southern girl.
In fact, for winter driving, you should change your motor oil to a lighter weight. And change the battery every three years. And in rural areas, snow tires instead of all-season.
Also, if you live in an urban area or take the highways, there is salt on the roads. Salt corrodes metal. Which is why I have three cars: My summer roadster. My practical car. And my winter beater.9 hours ago, Gil Bang said:TV show or movie. Car pulls up spewing steam out of the tailpipe. It's obvious that the car is ice cold, but was supposedly driven a long distance.
Steam? Immediately check the head gasket. Unless you are driving a Stanley Steamer, there is no steam.
There may be drops of water dripping from the tailpipe but that is the exhaust forcing out the condensation caused by cold headers and muffler and cat with the warm exhaust. That is why modern exhaust systems are stainless steel. I remember replacing exhaust systems on almost every car I owned.
That is exhaust - which does have some water vapor. When it is cold enough, it won't matter how far you drive. You can see the exhaust.- 1

I can remember when Brookstone was a catalog company, with a lot of unique and high-quality little tools and gimcracks. Very cool "place" then. The stores have been nothing but disappoint.
I can remember reading the Brookstone advertisements in Skymall magazine. There must be something about flying where a $250 automatic cat litter box almost makes sense. And I don't have a cat.

The "hatecrime" label is a fucking joke, even when it is such a heinous act.
I can immediately think of several examples of people being killed because of their race. The Zebra Murders, the soldiers who murdered Toshiro Kobata and Hirota Isomura at Lordsburg and James Byrd, whose death-by-dragging was the sparking point for the Texas hate crimes law.
The hate crimes enhancer is like tripling traffic fines in freeway construction and school zones.
I don't know how effective of a deterrent the hate crimes enhancer is .... -

Peanut allergy is dramatically on the rise. https://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/02/03/as-peanut-allergies-rise-trying-to-determine-a-cause/
It appears that recommendations for avoiding prenatal consumption of peanuts has fomented peanut allergies and that prenatal consumption of peanut products is important to avoiding the allergy.

^^^ Not a real nigga, but my interpretation is that with the prevalence of tattoos, drawing with a Sharpie on the unconscious person's face has become a lost art. The new prank: Load the victim up with all the weapons the gang members have used in their criminal activities making sure to leave his fingerprints on the guns to incriminate him and place an anonymous call to the authorities.
Such fun! See you in ten to fifteen, homie! -

Bell, Book & Candle
With the lovely Kim Novak
1958 was a good year for her. Bell, Book, and Candle with James Stewart preceded by starring with Stewart in Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo. Two movies for which I associate Kim Novak (and women in general) with the color green.

I used to have about thirty or more bottles of hot sauce. They took up two shelves on the refrigerator door. All purchased from mail order catalogs specializing in chili spices and hot sauces. (Before internet.) Not finding hot sauce sellers on the webs other than places which sell their own products. And I'm not recognizing too many names. A couple of the scotch bonnet sauces were exercises in pain. I can't imagine ghost pepper sauce.
One favorite of mine was B.F. Trappey's Red Devil.
Mild in comparison to many brands but flavorful and versatile. Used to keep a bottle in my desk drawer at work. Stopped buying Trappey's about twenty years ago. The recipe must have been changed. Frank's Red Hot and Louisiana Red Rooster seem to have slipped too. Bought them by the gallon and decanted into small canning jars.
Nowadays it's Crystal and Tabasco. -
