    Points To Ponder...

    The Beat goes On

    ONE Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could have an order of 6,9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half dozen nuggets. "We don't have half dozen nuggets," said the teenager at the counter. "You don't?" I replied." "We only have six, nine, or twelve," was the...
