Stat Counter



Sunday, December 23, 2007

Stealthily Sam sneaks into the front door of the McDonald's that he has only entered one other time before.Seeing a newspaper in the 'free to read' rack,he grabs one and holds it up covering his face.

Sam notices the normal Micky D's activities:people in line waiting to order,families chowing down and drinking shakes,photographer's turning to look at him....photographers turning to look at him!

Crap!

He is next to a door to the outdoor playland that is held open only by the end of a 'Wet Floor-Do Not Enter' sign.Sam pushes through it.He hears the door lock shut behind him.He looks to see if he has been spotted.Amazingly,the photographer turns to order.He has been saved.

Sam walks over to the bench with the Ronald McDonald statue sitting on it.He will sit behind the statue,using it for cover.Sam opens up the paper,quickly turning to the funnies.Aaah!Eureka!Hey!There is 'Frog Applause'.A calm joy overcomes him.If 'Frog Applause' is in the paper,all is well...well,not well,but...

"I know what you mean,a good 'Frog Applause' can make even the quirkiest situation seem normal by comparison."

Sam starts shaking the paper.He knows...he doesn't even have to look,he knows that the Ronald McDonald statue sitting next to him has come to life.

"Hiya,Sam,"says Ronald,looking straight ahead,"They're looking for you,you know."

Sam turns to look.He can't help himself.This is RONALD McDONALD.Not just any Ronald McDonald,either,but the all time classic of classic Ronalds.This Ronald is Squire Fridell:the ultimate R.M.Squire Fridell!Also,known as the Toyota man!{Hiya Squire!}

" 'Frog Applause' is just a great strip,don't you think,Sam?It's like we have another 'Far Side' back in the paper.It's just a joy to read.It makes me smile."

Sam is very puzzled.Of course Sam likes 'Frog Applause'.He even gets it three quarters of the time,but is that why Ronald McDonald has come to life...to tell him he likes,'Frog Applause'?

Ronald continues,"Smiling children.We need more smiling children.Don't you think,Sam?Wouldn't more smiling children be nice?You can't have enough smiling children."

"Yes,yes,yes,Ronald,I agree..."says a very puzzled Sam,"The more smiling children,the better."

"Thank you,Sam,You've been a big help.A real big help.I think if you don't want to get caught,you better climb the fence and get going.They know you're here.I'll hold them off.Watch out for the spears on top.Don't try this at home."

Sam turns to the door.'CLICK',it opens with photographers snapping away.He starts climbing the fence,avoiding the spears the best he can.'RIP'.There goes his inseam.He doesn't care.He is escaping.He looks back.The Paparazzi are acting like the Keystone Kops tripping all over themselves....did one of them just trip over Ronald's foot?

Sam gets to the CTS.The door is locked,"Kat,open the door.Kat!Please."

"Well[click],since you did apologize earlier.
