Bring it on, five year olds!
I know; you’re going to say this is sick and wrong. But remember: A five-year-old’s head butt is right at crotch level for some of us. The best defense is a good offense.

The world’s worst McDonald’s …
is the one at 17284 Main Street in Hesperia.
I thought I would run and grab a quick to-go lunch for the kid and wife, who are at home today.
This is what I ordered:
James: A Happy Meal, with four Chicken McNuggets, Apple Dippers, milk and a toddler toy
Jenn: A two cheeseburger meal (plain) with a Diet Coke
Me: A crispy bacon ranch salad, a double cheeseburger and a large Diet Coke.
This is what we got:
James: A Happy Meal, with four Chicken McNuggets, french fries, a small Diet Coke and a big kid’s toy (some sort of sure-to-choke-on snake from Kung Fu Panda)
Jenn: Two cheeseburgers with the works and a Diet Coke
Me: A packet of ranch dressing, a double cheeseburger and a large Diet Coke.
Every single one of us had an error with our part of the order.
I’ve previously written a complaint to McDonald’s, Inc. about this location. Nothing happened.
Back to not buying from them for a few more years.
Important technical information
When the baby grabs your Treo and begins gnawing on it, the correct response is not, “oh, just let him play with it; what harm can he do?”
Granted, a Treo without a working microphone isn’t useless, but it’s also not a cellphone any more, either.

Blog 2.0
A month shy of three years later, I’ve updated the site’s look and feel. I believe that the Internet gurus (who will be happy to handle the service for a small fee) say that sites should be updated every 18 months. Obviously, I’ve got a ways to go there.
I looked at a number of “magazine style” themes for the blog, and the idea of having the front page display a grid of posts appealed to me, but they all took far too much work to adapt for a site with hundreds of posts already made. So I went with Conestoga Street instead, which still is nice and newspaper-flavored (at least now it is, anyway).
There’s a few quirks on this site I need to fix. The first one is that there’s no link to older posts on the front page or on archive pages. In the interim, use the search window to look for a specific post.
If you see any other glitches on the new site, please let me know here. And stay tuned for the 3.0 version of this site, coming in 2011.
(Oh, and if the name of this site confuses you, I explained it back in 2005.)
