Apr. 21st, 2005 03:00 amOn the way back home from a job interview (which I fear I'm underqualified for) I decided to walk from Baltimore's Exieter St. along Eastern Ave to Howard Street, edging the National Aquarium ($18/person!?! Damn, maybe later!), and eventually going up Lombard to Howard, and down to the Light Rail stop (could of went up, of course).
Within that time, I went to McDonalds... which looked like they took a hole-in-the-wall two-story and shoved a fast food place in there. If you walk inside (mind the steps) you have a few chairs and tables to one side, the counter and the drink machines on another. Turn around, and you get steps to go upstairs to a proper dining area. Almost as bad as WalMart -- I've seen them build a building around a WalMart, and I've seen them shove a WalMart into an existing building.
So I go in, order a $1 Double Cheezeburger, medium fries, and a large Coke (WHAAAAA NO DR. PEPPER!!!!). Paid with my debit card, and within a few minutes I had my food. Went upstairs, and dangit I didn't get a Baltmore City Paper. *grumble* I drowned my sorow in fries...
Now, I don't know what they put in those fries, but it's sure addictive enough for you to finish the entire serving. Not enough to make you buy more after you finished them off, but just enough to make you glad you didn't order a Large and SUPER-SIZED it. It's almost as bad as one Ernie/Parana Club strip, where the fries are cooked in motor oil run through a an old 1950's gas-guzziling one-off car. I forget what was the make and model.
Anyway, two contortionist RedWolf pics are up on DA now. 3d renders, of course.
