McDonald"S Anyone?

[shanaRN]

Just wondering about what everybody thinks about the latest "Joe Blow" suing Mickey D's for him being fat. I am sorta of the mind set that no one taped him to the bed and stuffed Big Mac's in his mouth.

I think American's need to take some responsibility and accept that if you are fat it is either a physiological disease process or just your own doing, not Ronald McDonald's! I have little trouble finding the similarities between this and the cancer/cigarettes thing.

Just wondering what anyone else thought.

My sex ed class was taught by Sister Mary Paulissa who had to be 85 at that time. I have no recollection of what we talked about.

HaHa! I totally relate! My period talk was done by Sister Catherine Renalda and consisted of a handout and movie entitled 'Julie's Day'. The boys kept trying to steal our pamphlets, like ANY of us knew what it was.

PS:

I saw different menus at the Oklahoma Mc Donalds when I was there last month.

This is because we have more fast food joints here than any other place (at least that's what I've been told) so if new menu items go over here, they have a pretty good chance of working elsewhere.

Different Mikey d's have different menus in different countires, like in the UK you can get an English Mc Muffin, and in France you can get croissants.

Plus in the US you get bigger portions!

....and it is scary how much I learnt from working there

My mom and my best friend's mom taught mine (they were public health nurses). How embarassing!

Sex ed-well that was "taught by my Italian father who said, Iffa you comma home pregnant withoutta benefit offa marriage, I'mma gonna killa you AND then I'mma gonna killa the booy who did thisa to you." I understood. Completely.

Didn't need Sr. Mary's lecture at all. I was the only virgin in 1968 in hte sophmore class

I am always fascinated by the lawsuits in the US!

Would be impossible here, no lawyer or judge would take a person serious with these things.
