Must Be Something New on The MacDonald's Menu


Have you ever had this happen to you? A man finds ants in his burrito. (h/t) Ottawa Sun



"MARKHAM -- Having Aunt Martha stop by for dinner over the holiday season is one thing, but having 50 ants for breakfast was more than Tommy Lam could stomach.

The jeweller said he found them lining his McDonald's burritos.

"It was disgusting!" Lam told the Sun yesterday soon after he said he made the gruesome discovery.

The 28-year-old said he and his girlfriend stopped by the busy fast-food restaurant at Markham Rd. and Denison St. around 11 a.m. yesterday to grab a quick bite to eat on their way to work.

After waiting 15 minutes in line, the couple said they ordered two sausage and egg burrito combos to go, which includes a total of four pita-wrapped sandwiches.

Soon after, they sat down to eat at his business, Jewellery Box, just around the corner at Steeles Ave. E. and Middlefield Rd. That's when Lam claims they spotted dozens of ants inside and outside their burritos."

I have never had ants in my burrito but I did find a hair once in my Chinese food. I found it totally disgusting,and it put me off of Chinese food for awhile. I never went back to that particular restaurant again.

Time for This Again


The remains of our latest fallen arrive home today at CFB Trenton for another repatriation ceremony. It never gets easier, it's always hard to see. In fact it should never get easier because we would tend to forget quicker. We must never forget those brave ones that paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Later they travel down the Highway of Heroes.



Thank you, Sgt. George Miok, 28; Cpl. Zachery McCormack, 21; Sgt. Kirk Taylor, 28; Pte. Garrett Chidley, 21; and Calgary Herald reporter Michelle Lang, 34 and all those who have sacrificed before.

Global Warming? Where is it?

Your alarmists like Al Gore and David Suzuki preach, "There's global warming, we must take action now." Um..... where is it?

It's not here, or here, here. Britian is having one of it's coldest winters in 100 yrs. Even India experiencing below normal temperatures.

So where is it? I want Gore, Dr. Fruit Fly and the IPCC scam artists to tell me. They're probably too busy right now trying to keep warm.

I WANT some global warming, bring it on!

Update: Great column, by Bjorn Lomborg,

Global warming will save millions of lives
