Hi again,

"Ich mochte ein viertel funter, mit grosse pomme frites und ein bier bitte."

I don't get the first half but "large fries and a beer" sounds pretty good. Then too you don't order hamburgers or frankfurters in Germany or you'll get a surprise. (;->)

"Ich bin ein Berliner." (I'm a jelly doughnut.)
JFK

"French McDonalds had wine on the menu but I had more fun at the coffee houses in Holland!"

They don't have French fries in France (Paris Is Burning?) and beer blows me up, I'll take the wine. Uh huh, they serve coffee in the coffee houses but BYOW. No stupid, the W doesn't stand for wine amsterdamit.

"My close call has only captured the drive thru's when I was sitting at the window waiting for my order and the clerk was taking an order."

Naturally, they're very low power and CC lacks sensitivity by design. Otherwise it would lock on to fly farts across town and you'd be inundated with hits.

I'm rather surprised at all the interest in burger dumps, you guys must be pretty bored with life and considering suicide by "food" poison.

Waren,

"I'd like a quarter pounder with large fries and a beer."

I never had a bad beer in Germany. Even on the rare occasion I'd eat at McD

I have a couple of the drive through freqs loaded. Very seldom listen to them. Only when I need a really good laugh. Or when I am in line and want to get a feel for how long I'll be waiting.

Cmon Warren and tell us all the "fine" dining you do.
Im guessing Kraft Mac & cheese dinners and tuna fish sandwiches.

You KNOW my German is rusty, I'd get a short handle 12lb sledge.

"I never had a bad beer in Germany."

Not with their beer purity laws you won't. Say "Budweiser" and they look at you funny.

"Or when I am in line and want to get a feel for how long I'll be waiting."

A Unimog will get you there faster.

"Cmon Warren and tell us all the "fine" dining you do."

I have a lobster and steak appetite on a hamburger budget so I put tuna and peas in the mac and cheese. I also like putting crushed tomatoes and pinto beans on top of corned beef hash, reminds me of dog food only better. Don't forget the asparagus, makes your pee smell good and keeps the dogs away from the corned beef hash.

Then there's always "kitty" in case the dogs get too curious.

Boars Head Ham always went well with Kraft Mac & Cheese, I miss Boars Head Products.

One young German lady I knew asked me once if it was true Americans served beer in cans. The German word for can is 'dosen'. I'll quote her (as we were speaking in German).

"Bier in dosen, YUK.!"

I guess ham goes well with mac and cheese, never tried it. Boar's Head is around, I see the delivery truck at the supermarket so maybe you should shop somewhere else. That reminds me, they use HTs in the local market only the license expired 4 years ago. (;->)

"Bier in dosen, YUK.!"

DEFINITELY YUK! On the other hand German beer in bottles can end up like this.

They don't sell Boars Head where I now live, I really miss their bologna most. Yes I said bologna.

There was an El Pollo Loco restaurant near my old condo, I found their drive-thru activity on an FRS frequency!! Not sure if what I was hearing was an image... seems hard to believe they'd have FRS gear in a drive-thru setup.

Hence the Loco part...

there is a wendy's and a kfc. near me about 1000 feet from each other. if i sit in my car halfway between their stores i can hear both on 469.0125. the conversations between the order takers and those in the store managing can be quite funny.
