"So Missouri voted to 'keep marriage like it's always been' there? What, between consenting fifteen year-olds?"--Lin Brehmer, Chicago DJ
Yes, I'd like to personally thank my home state for reminding me why most Northerners reckon it belongs to the South. And for reminding me that it's like a parent to me: I love it, I miss it, but I can't ever see myself living with it again.

Well Mississippi is certainly the sow-yuth.
That flibbertigibbet just didn't appreciate the joys of shoe-salesmanship.
Did they ever complete that big MacDonald's in Missouri?

I haven't the slightest idea what you're talking about. Building a McDonalds isn't exactly news around here.

They're building a new, improved (read: more sky boxes for VIPs) stadium for the baseball team in St. Louis. It might have a McDonalds in it.

Oh, Mucky...Where's your sensayuma?
I was referring to that big archy thing they have there that looks like half of a Mc Donald's sign.

There's a McDonald's on a riverboat permanently moored in front of the Arch. It's the only one I've seen without the golden arches. As a boy, I was told this was a condition for taking that spot: They couldn't have anything that would "compete" with the monument.

Of course, that was then. If St. Louis has gotten anything like Chicago (where Disney can line State Street with 3-D advertisements and call it "art" and the new "Milennium Park" doesn't have a square inch that isn't named for a corporation), they're working on plans for the second span as I type this.
