Lucky kiddos!

How wonderful that you're able to share your talent with others.

Decided to change things up today and went to Sonic for a Burger and some fries...

Got back to work, started tossing back my chow and there at the bottom of my french fries was a tater tot - a bonus tater tot from sonic. Hooray for me bitches


Hooray for me.

From what I gather about your luck from some of the things you post - I'd caution against asking for "one exquisite bite" - the bite you end up with might very well come from an 80 pound Belgian Malinois.

Hooray for me, too! We must be on the same fast food bonus plane. I picked up a spicy chicken sandwich at Culver's and the last bite in my onion rings was a free crinkle cut fry. Best thing that's happened in a year.

These places are getting pretty careless, I got a cheese curd in my crinkle fries last week at Culvers. Then to top that off my funny uncle in DC put $2800.00 in my bank account on the 24th, I did not even ask for it. What's next?

They can't find us. There's a piece of a happy thought in there.
