    And here is a funny one. We took the kids through the McDonalds
    drive-through the other night and saw one of the funniest signs we had
    ever seen, second only to the Braille on the drive-through ATMs. Turns
    out that McDonalds provides a picture menu with pictures of each of the
    offerings for their customers who cannot read. The sign in the drive
    through read "Picture menus available upon request." How would they
    know if they don't know how to read???

    Sam

    p.s. Please no comments about McDonalds, I don't eat the stuff but the
    kids love the chicken tenders (the new ones, not the old ones with the
    beaks and claws...)
