Some holiday

In an early celebration of St. Patrick's Day I treated the kids to Shamrock milkshakes from McDonald's.  I used to love getting these as a kid and still do.

Carson and Luke have never had a Shamrock shake before so they did not know what to expect and I wanted to keep it a surprise.  When they took a drink (after a long time of sucking through the straw before they successfully got any out) Luke announced in an excited voice, "It doesn't taste like grass!"  I guess that would be a good thing.

I went on to ask them about St. Patrick's Day and what they thought it was all about.  Luke gets all the holidays mixed up and said it was all about hugs and then continued to tell me Happy Valentines Day.  Carson said it was about leprechauns and four leaf clovers.  Then he went on to tell me that we celebrate Patrick.  So I asked who he was.  And you know what he said?  

Patrick from Spongebob.  

Happy Patrick Day.

Funny police story

Occasionally I will come across a funny police blotter story in our local paper and clip it out. As I was cleaning out a drawer the other day, I came across one such story from a few years back that made me laugh. So I thought I'd share it with you all.

Allegedly 'stoned' woman arrested at McDonald's:
Police responded to McDonald's Restaurant at 11pm after workers said a drive through customer stated she was "stoned," then sat in the parking lot for an hour.

Police located the woman in her car, wearing two pairs of glasses. Police said she stated she turned in a job application and was waiting for them to hire her. When asked to exit her car, police said she asked if police wanted her to hop out or if police wanted her to turn into smoke and float out.

Police said she admitted being high, and stated she could help McDonald's by pointing out other stoned people. She also stated McDonald's wouldn't hire her and she asked about becoming a cop, police say.

Police said she pushed an officer and yelled at officers. She was shocked with a Taser and arrested on battery, disorderly conduct, and resisting charges.
