speaking of allergic reactions to peanuts. For some reason reading what you wrote got me to thinking about this.

How come some crazy parent hasn't sued some store for not keeping their peanuts in some air tight container? My sister was talking about some girl she teaches that is so allergic to peanuts the scent will cause her problems. It would just seem to me that would get some crazy parent to sue grocery stores to not have the smell permiate through out the store so the girl can go there.

anyway, just seemed like with the way the world is today, this would have happened.

I never even eat the peanuts, because the fries are so awesome and they give you so much that you can't even finish them all. So every peanut I eat leaves less room for fries.

I saw something like that at the exit at Four Brothers (or is it FIve Guys) as I walked out into the polluted chaotic streets of Manhattan. Thinking, yeah, way to protect your azz but if you are that sensitive to peanuts you are pretty fuxored in Manhattan and might as well just die or move. btw, I am not advocating death, life should be celebrated.

You know how they all have a sign saying where the potatoes come from? I went to a Five Guys in Idaho, and the sign said "Today's potatoes from Podunk, Washington". Say what now?

Surprised that that the locals* didn't burn that place down.
*simple farmers, people of the land, the common clay of the new west - you know... morons.

Bunch of mormons up there, the closest you'll get to angry revenge is them posthumously baptizing your grandma
