Anytime I've been in one in the US outlets the food standard is much higher (yes I know it's McDonalds but stay with me here..) The regulation burger in the UK seems to be cold, lopsided with the lettuce falling out and the usual thumb indentation through the bun Sometimes its passable, not much though..

well, California is the land of health, and healthy people need freedoms too. But point taken. That's weird about McDonalds. And gross about the thumbprint! don't they have the warming receptacles there? Anyway, though, a country that doesn't embrace fast food, and do it well, is all right by me! I swear, you can't get away from it here! The only places by my work are McD's, Jack in the Box, Churches Chicken, and a Donut place. Well, there is a sushi place that is good, but usually too expensive for me. And a Korean place, which i won't eat at, every since i read how about in Korea they torture the dogs before they eat them because it makes the meat taste better. yeah, i know, that was in Korea, and they are here now, but still.
Maybe the fast food standards are higher here because so many people eat at them, and there are so many

Yes, I know the US fast food culture is something inescapable, it's getting worse over here too. Another KFC near my home, next to McDonalds.. We have that problem but not quite as bad. Wagamamas noodle bars are cool over here though, not too expensive and the food is reasonably healthy. Chinese and Indian food takeouts still rule the UK over pizzas and burgers but things are changing, as are waistlines..

The government is trying to educate healthy eating due to a massive rise in obesity in schoolkids which is a great approach rather than ignoring the issue .

She's been one of my faves for years. Something about her when she's onscreen just makes me happy. One of her best movies is Liberty Stands Still, which I heartily recommend.

The sex scene in Peter Berg's car was hot.

And that ending! What an ice queen. She can drop by anytime.

isn't she kinetic? And she can flash the bitchy/disdain in her eyes like no one since Bette Davis! Pisces, by the way...

You know who else I'm oddly attracted to? Sally Kirkland. She was in a movie called "Anna" back in the 80s (for which she should have won an Oscar) and I found her weirdly seductive. She can't dress or accessorize for **** and her breasts alone weigh more than me, but I still like her.

that is kind of weird, but actually, not really. She's kind of hot. pretty good actress as far as i can tell. I tried to look up for more info, but was directed to a bunch of nude pics...Reese was there, and Gwyneth I've never seen "Anna" . lol@her breasts.
