The fringe benefits of being a Miracle Worker look
quite nice.

It's Ronald McDonald in the UK, and I assumed that this was the same
worldwide. Obviously not. Incidentally, the reason given for the name change
was simply that "Ronald" was difficult to pronounce for Japanese speakers.

I always figured that in the early days of McD's in Japan some
advertising/marketing/etc. exec mispronounced it, and nobody wanted to
tell him he said it wrong.

Just imagine what that shot might look like if I
were a Miracle Worker like Ronald. YUMMY!

And what is the name of the man with glasses always standing by the entrance
of Kentucky Fried Chicken? Is that the statue of Michael Cash? Or Randy
Bass?
