On a local note, Mickey D's was quite supportive when I went on a personal mission to send Happy Meal toys to Uzbekistan. I knew an airman (woman) stationed in Uzbek who was flying missions in and out of A'ghan. When she told me stories of how she and her platoon used to play soccer with the Uzbek kids (before the scheisse hit the fan), I started collecting Happy Meal toys to send for her to give away. I called a local corporate office and they donated a couple of boxes of 'em (which was about all I could afford to ship anyway).

I don't eat at Mickey D's, but am always pleased to hear of a company who supports the troops.

I've never eaten a BigMac ~ like you, I support them for supporting our troops!

Not a fast food fan. :)
