"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with great talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence, determination alone are omnipotent." -Ray Kroc, founder of McDonald's restaurants Would you like fries with that? -------------- Steve up in the PTC Dont tempt me; Im where I wanna be Cause on the eighth day, God made sweet tea. -Cravin Melon

Not arguing, just a note :) I got turned off of McDonalds when I found out there are more carcinogens/chemicals in McDonalds french fries than in cigarettes..ewwww.

We went to the local museum this weekend (yes, I know, I'm a nerd) and they had the 1930's and 40's house dresses that the women wore. They were tiny little things, like size -8! Grandma reminded me that most of the women were that size back then. But, think of the lifestyle difference! Not only the way they ate, but the women hand washed the clothes on the washboards (talk about a workout!), did a ton of manual labor, etc. I think that it's incredibly sad how lazy we have become as a whole and how everyone uses the "I'm too busy to be healthy" excuse. That's all it is! A bunch of excuses and laziness!!! Don't get me started. ha ha. But, I still love the Big Mac's, even though my arteries harden at the sight of them! But, yummmmm!!!!
