The 'earthy' and larger Shrek II colored M&Ms are hilarious. Don calls Jared a little "two ton tanker". We drove out and found the "Foto's Fotos" cache on Friday night with Maite. Also viewed "The Transporter" (again) on VHS on Saturday night.

I think the Pope is correct that many of America's youth are losing sight of the fundamental values that formed this country. Here's a stupid example of what's wrong with this country: apparently some apartment complexes forbid their tenants from displaying the American flag. How retarded is that?

Had a wonderful dining experience at McDonalds, of all places, on Saturday. With all the health-conscious changes they've made lately, I actually ate a full meal there today and didn't walk out feeling guilty. I had the Go Active! adult happy meal, with a premium fiesta salad, with a bottle of Dasani bottled water, and some apple slices. The toy, of course, is a pedometer. Becky got the traditional child's happy meal, and she got a Neopets-themed box with a purple jub jub plush toy, and a red kougra trading card. For her meal, she got Chicken McNuggets, and the apple slices (which she didn't like, however, because they were 'too cold') in place of french fries and a juice box of apple juice in place of a traditional soda.
