The MitchCast 174

Now, more than ever, it is time to band together and unite against The End of the $1 Soda at McDonald’s Our voices must be heard! We need to sound off on twitter, Facebook, and yes, even Google Circles (all 48 of us). If enough of us complain, we can fight back against corporate greed, 30 cents at a time.

If that’s not your bag, don’t worry. We still have the fight to bring back the gods gift to humanity: The Beef Baja Chalupa. I’m sorry if you are hearing this for the first time, but Taco Bell is no longer offering the Beef Baja Chalupa. Indeed these are sad times for those of us on the drive-thru diet. What next? The downtown Portland Carl’s Jr. is gonna close?? Oh, wait, it already has. Curses!

Still, the sun shines on some things. What, I don’t know. If you own a sleeper sofa, aka hide-a-bed couch, then do yourself a favor: NEVER MOVE! At least, don’t call me or Sean to help. (By the way, his new name is Sugar-pecs.) There is no appendage worth losing to move those over-sized, crappy sleeping, heavier than lead, poor excuses for a bed. Period.

There’s more to this episode than that, but let’s not gloss over these important issues. We also take the usual time to enlighten and preach. Find out my futurist vision for the e-book reader and what it could be. Steal the ideas and become a multi-millionaire. They’re yours for the taking.
