Outrage Under the Golden Arches

I am FLABERGASTED!!! That's right, FLABERGASTED!!!

Ronald McDonald is a fiend, and he is not to be trusted. He is a thief; a no good sneaky thief. He has stolen something very precious to me, and no, I am not talking about my former waifish figure.

On a recent journey to my local McDonald's, I was shocked and appalled at a vicious menu change made to the value meal lineup. There is no more number 2. Now before anybody starts making doodie jokes (tee-hee, I said doodie), the number 2 on the value meal contained two cheeseburgers, a medium fry, and a medium beverage. It was the one meal I enjoyed at McDonald's, and now it is gone...GONE!

Now the quarter-pounder meal occupies the space where my beloved two cheeseburger meal once resided. The QP was promoted from number 3, and it's big brother the double-quarter-pounder is now in it's former residence.

I don't know why they did this, but they could have at least given the elegant number 2 meal the proper respect, and retired it's number. Seriously, I want to see an 'In Memory of..." place holder for the two cheeseburger meal.

Perhaps I am over-reacting. I mean, it seems harsh to refer to Ronald as a thief. Besides, it was most likely that shifty-eyed, Hamburgler bastard.

Oh my gosh Jeff I'm in tears, not because I'm sad for the number 2 meal, but because you are so dang funny!
I guess the number 2 meal is a sad thing for you, so i do feel bad a little.
