 SD> my favorite burgers are the ones I grill myself

I bet that is the first choice of everyone here!

When Neekha was very young she wanted to go to McDonalds. I asked
her if she didn't like mine. She responded that I made the best
burgers but they gave free toys to kids. Being a soft hearted
grandfather I told her I would start handing out toys too but
instead of crappy ones she'd get one good one every tenth time. So
after ten weeks and ten backyard BBQs she reminded me of my promise
(she didn't forget and was old enough to count!) which leads into
another story.

I gave her a $10 bill and took her to a store. She chose a doll that
was $9.99, took it to the cashier and handed over the bill. The
cashier rang it over the total came out to $10.49 with sales tax.
Neekha didn't have 49 cents so she turned into a junior Karen and
went into a rant. "The sign says $9.99; that's false advertising!
Kids shouldn't have to pay taxesanyway; we're not allowed to vote!"
In the end I ponied up the difference.

Cheers

Jim
