Elf Spock in my House

Add comment February 8th, 2008

I got a small enevelope in the mail containing the very elusive Elf Spock Minimate.

This particular minimate is not available any where [except maybe evilBay] as they were a holiday giveaway from Diamond Select Toys to their retailers and folks they do business with.

Once I heard about him I had to have me one! Not that I am a completist when it comes to my collection [I still need a YE Yar to complete my Playmates Star Trek Collection], but I have been trying to get just about everything and well I just love the minimates since they are so small and cute.

You can check out the Spock Elf at StarTrekToysOnline.com. Heck you can even join and rate him if you so desire.

BK Wouldn’t Let Me Have It My Way

Top of the receipt says, “Have it your way…” yet I wasn’t allowed to have it my way. I don’t normally eat a lot of Burger King food as I don’t care for the taste of the flame broiled [charbroiled] meat, but every once in awhile I want a whopper.

I heard about this Whopper Wednesday deal and thought, “Heck I’ve been hankering a whopper guess I will get one tonight.” First, the BK I went to did participate in the wednesday special so I had to pay full price. Secondly, and mostly upsetingly, I could not have it my way.

I wanted extra pickles on my whopper, but when I ordered I was told they were out of pickles. How in the hell does a fast food restaurant run out of pickles? Don’t they get deliveries on a regular basis? And don’t those pickles come in five gallon buckets? So how do you run out of pickles?

Well the burger wasn’t good and perhaps the pickles would have helped but I don’t think so. If I ever go back to that particular restaurant I will be sure to ask for extra on everything as my sandwich was dry and tasteless. So does Burger King stand behind there Whoppers and do anything about it when a customer can’t have it their way? We’ll find out as I intend on giving them a call tomorrow.
