Have It your Way!

So I am reading the "Appeal Democrat" which is the local paper here in the yuba City/Marysville area. I read on the front page of the "Appeal" the following article, "Meth bust made at burger drive-through." It appears that the on-duty manager of the Marysville Burger King restaurant (Is a fast food place really a restaurant?) was selling methamphetamine from the drive-through window. Brings a whole new twist to Burger King's slogan, "Have it your way!" "Hold the pickles, hold the lettuce, special sauce and oh yeah, add meth!"

Five grams of packaged meth with a street value of $400 was found at the restaurant. It appears that the female manager had been selling the meth from the restaurant for several weeks. Drug customers called the manager ahead of time, then came to the drive trough, ordered foor and paid for it. The manager would have the customers pull around and wait for their order, then she would go outside with the food and drugs.

I knew there was a reason I had stopped eating at Burger king, but I though it was to try and eat healthy. In case you weren't aware, Yuba Country is the meth capital of the nation pretty much.

On a brighter note, 50 pounds of unstable dynamite was found in a house near Marysville. The bomb squad will be blowing it up tomorrow. How cool is that? Getting to blow things up as part of your daily job can be pretty cool.

Well have fun at the drive through next time and remember to store your dynamite safely! I live in Mayberry.

We have to pay extra for drive-thru meth here in Ohio. But they will dust my fries with some heroin for free. buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
