What was once THE WORLD is now being called McWorld by
keen observers of our consumer culture. The McNews reports the
big story of the day: McDonald's may soon be serving its McCustomers
a different Mcburger. I am reminded of the Classic Coke fiasco.
Don't mess with success ! Or in this case, don't mess with a
mess. I'm one of those soon to be OBSOLETE baby boomers who
remember what REAL hamburgers tasted like -and smelled like as
they sizzled on the grill of the friendly, neighborhood Greasy Spoon.
McWorld is taking EVERY nostalgic memory away from us !
I can now identify with that character in the Twilight Zone episode:
" Walking Distance ". Imagine just being able to walk back into
the saner and safer world( ??? ) of 1959 !
But the McWorld news can only tell me that the monsters
are due on Maple Street.
It seems that McPeople are terribly worried about
clones - HUMAN clones. McPeople at least are alike everywhere -
as alike as McDonald's hamburgers !
