Where is a great place to tailgate before a Colts game, that has realtively easy access to a bathroom?
McDonald's ABSOLUTELY cares about its customers: the shareholders.
It gives us (the public) what we are willing to pay for. McDonald's is not the problem, it is the symptom. The problem is the extraordinary belief that eating their "food" is easy...
I bet when she looks out those Windows, she sees a nice Vista.
My wife, some friends, and I watched the Colts-Seahawks game at Scotty's Brewhouse. It was fun though, I expected more people and more enthusiasm. From my seat--and without turning my head--I could see 16 televisions screens!
I'm quite certain I ...
IMHO "A" is sleek, stunning, and dare I say, sexy!
"B" not so much.
I vote "A"
As a mental health counselor, I have earned my living listening to others. Now, as a small business operator, I definitely “talk” more than I used to. Finding the balance between the two is something I attend to often.
A recent experience relates...
You've already received some great advice. It takes a lot of courage to start (or re-start) college later in life ("Can I do the work?" "Am I too old?" "Am I smart enough") Kudos to you for working toward your dreams. That's truely admirable.

I'm sorry.
What did you say?
For home games, The Slippery Noodle is always a good time. Jillians is fun too. BW3's as well. Scotty's Brewhouse is said to be a good time, but I haven't made it in there yet.
Check out Ike & Jonesy's, for sure!
What is your favorite downtown restaurant or pub for watching the Colts on television?

- yes, I am very lucky. Sat next to a master woodworker at dinner last week and he said he lived in the old McCracken Homestead near toronto ... half the people in the telephone directory there are McCracken! A second McCracken Landing is in Canada.. I had only heard about the one on the mississipi. He completely remade the home from local lumber,,,, bought it from Ontario for $1! I am jealous!

- obviously you are KEvin. I have friends who say ayann for Ann and clayer for Claire so it might be hoosier. I am descended from the brother of Henry Jpy McCracken. He went from Scotland to Ireland to fight around the time of Bonnie prince Charlie. he was hanged for treason! My grandfather grew up on a farm in Northern Ireland. He was taken with his brother to Louis Pasteur when a mad dog bit him and his brother... his father must have been well read and up to date to even know about this. I believe his brother came to the USA but we have no further information on that side. there is of course a place called "McCracken Landing " on the mississippi I think and the town of Paduccah(?sp) is in McCracken county. My father visited both with his brother 30 years ago or so. I have been meaning to go for ages but not done it yet. They said there were signs on buses saying " Keep McCracken Clean" ! etc. I only know of on pronunciation for McCracken (muckracken). Sara is a welsh name... my father Dermot was born in wales. It is not pronounced sarah( Serah) although many Americans have tried to tell me I am mispronouncing my own name!. It is" Saaruh" . Interestingly, most jewish and Indian people get it right!
Hope this helps. You can call me if you need to hear these things! 317 431 0719.
