A. Those fruits look unbelievable.
B. "McRice." That is marvelous. I read an entry from The Practical Joker's Handbook recently entitled "McDrive Thru." The joke was that you order everything in the McDonalds drive-thru with "Mc" in front of the name.

"Hey there, can I get one McFries and a Supersize McCoke, two McIce-cream-cones, a McDouble-Double with McCheese [and apparently now,] a McFries." To make it even better, try throwing in a good ole "Mick Jagger" and see what they do.

Sorry for that... I couldn't help but tell you.

Love,
dave.
