My daughter has been using up a bunch of gas driving to her summer job at Chick-fil-A (20 minutes away). So I needed to get gas this morning & decided to hit CFA first thing.
This was my first CFA breakfast. Spicy chicken and biscuit w/ hash browns. Excellent biscuit & the juicy, spicy chicken was almost to hot to eat right away. Kinda wish I had bought 2 sandwiches.
My wife & I are planning to go there for lunch around 1pm.

We’re going there this evening for dinner. Can’t wait!
78 miles one way to the nearest Chik-Fil-a. Maybe I’ll buy a t-shirt online.
All straight couples show up and kiss. Unless you’re like me and don’t like to see people swapping spit in public no matter what gender they are.
I saw pictures on another site which showed McDonalds, Wendy’s, and KFC were supporting Chick-fil- A. Does anyone know if this is nationally?
Mr. Mercat and I have been married 42 years. We’re going to eat at the Chick fil a in Olathe KS today.
If possible, a few things:
1) Please try to bring a camera for crowd pictures.
2) If you know any elderly or disabled veterans who can’t come, offer to bring them take-out, if their diets permit. (Of course this applies to other elderly or disabled as well. A good chance they will love the treat.)
3) Patriotic and Tea Party accessories are a fashion plus.
4) Bring a smile, and a cheery and patient frame of mind. The Chick-fil-A workers have been putting in a LOT of overtime for two weeks now, and are pretty tired and stressed, so be kind.
5) Remember that while there might be protestors today, they are planning their major protest on the 3rd (Friday), so if you want to support Chick-fil-A against them, it would be good to show up then as well.
I’m in Connecticut with the closest CFA in Paramus, NJ which I cannot get to.
Someone eat an extra sandwich for me, please. Maybe some waffle fries too.
Thanks
I have to tell this story: About twelve years ago, the top partner in the internaltional consulting firm I worked for in Atlanta, an obviously liberal man from South Africa, launched into a tirade in a management meeting about how "Christian companies" were hypocrits... "except for Chik-Fil-A: that's that one company that lives what it preaches." That impressed me that even he could see that the CF-A corporate culture was real.
Not long after, I was out of work due to a nationwide RIF of many of us new employees. Finding a job was difficult in the aftermath of the dotcom economy bubble, and I was feeling a little down. On a whim I decided to send CF-A a resume and letter describing that incident and explaining why I would like to be considered if there were any openings. Truett Cathy personally responded to me with a nice note and a signed autobiography and had a very nice manager call me and almost apologize that they had a small department did not have any positions available.
I've been in big business a long time. I've been a general counsel and CAO for a prospreous company and have been in several others. I have advised and counselled successful and wealthy people. And I can say positively that no other CEO of a major company would display that type of kindness to a total stranger. Nobody.
According to Obama, the Cathey’s didn’t build that business. Someone else did that.
That someone else might be gay.
So if someone is refusing to eat at Chick-Fil-A, it’s because they hate gay people.

Going to order up something big for the office from the Suffolk, VA (College Drive) CFA today.
Anybody know if there are any in upstate New York?
The only ones I can find are three down in NYShitty.
I’d be willing to drive 100 miles for lunch.
20 people in alternating, merging drive-thru lanes at the CFA in indigo Reston, Virginia this a.m. at 7:55. Lobby lines went to the door. Server said business was heavier than usual.
Those of you on facebook: remember to visit their page and ‘like’ it and indicate on Huckabee’s page that you’re attending his CFA appreciation day event.
Has Rush mentioned this?
