That's odd

So, went to the local McDonalds for lunch, the same one with the $1.39 double cheeseburger (despite McDonalds' continued marketing of it as part of their $1 menu) and whilst waiting for my double cheeseburgers, a customer after me walks up and orders a Happy Meal. Now, this guy was like 5'6", bald and around 45 years old and in a suit. . .ordering a Happy Meal. What made it even odder was that he paid for his Happy Meal with a $100 bill. Just use you debit card and be done with; did you really need to break your $100 bill at McDonalds by ordering a Happy Meal? Couldn't you have splurged on the double quarter pounder and large Coke, instead of the Happy Meal with small Coke? I can't help but think there was a better usage for that $100.

Anyway, last night a group of us went the Cubs/Giants game here in San Francisco. We got decked out in Cubs stuff and sat in the bleachers. Several amusing events from the game: a whole rash of taunts and jeers went out to Jim Edmonds, 95% of them from people in Cubs gear; Ryan Theriot almost getting Ray Durham into believing there was an overthrow on a play at 2nd base; the "Express" bathroom underneath the bleachers with a line out the door; and having my friend Vansmack buy 4 hot chocolates for various females that were wronged by him at one point or another during the game was amusing as well. Those were just some of the random sights from the game last night, not even going into the terrible decision-making that went on in the 7th inning allowing the Giants to score the 2nd run. It was chilly, but considering that I grew up going to games at Candlestick, games at AT&T Park are more than manageable.
