Who Wants to be a Millionaire?
Last night as we were returning home from our monthly pinochle party around 11 p.m., we noticed Eric in the drive-through window at McDonald's. So we thought it would be fun to pay him a visit. We pulled into the drive-through and Eric's voice came through the speaker sounding very professional and mature. "Welcome to McDonalds. May I take your order?" Will hemmed and hawed a bit, then said, "Uh, yeah, could I have a million dollars?" Eric's response was very prompt and polite. "I'm sorry, sir, we just ran out. Is there anything else I could get for you?" We were bringing home leftover homemade cookies I had taken to pinochle, so Will said, "Would you like a cookie?" Eric was a bit hesitant this time. "Uh...Okay." He had not recognized Will's voice and was relieved to see us when we pulled foward. He said it is not uncommon for people to ask for a million dollars but no one has ever offered him a cookie before! So we left cookies for him and his co-workers and headed on home!
