I still miss the Arch Deluxe.  It was tasty and actually had a kick that set it apart from all the other bland burgers.  Does anyone else miss it?  If I could get the recipe exactly as McDonalds did it, I'd make them at home.

i still miss Vincent Kennedy MacMahon's XFL(libertarian football league), which died due to his hiring fired and defected NFL players and the fact the media mocked it(extremely fraudulent league?!) and furthermore saturday night live complained about the premier show ruining their live broadcast making s'n'l excessively late. i knew the smokeless cigarette would fail, but the future brought us the E(lectronic) cigarette, which i cannot smoke. olean gave me the running beef. new coke was a sick prank, just like  clear pepsi(not listed), which looked like spit. but the one product which got wiped-out was the HD-DVD, GTH BLU RAY!!!, you demon of digital technology!!!! i hate the blu ray dvd combo market, which has proven to be a dvd format snobs paradise and i won't own a blu ray player until standard dvd goes 100% extinct worldwide!!!! when i do buy blu ray/dvd combo's i keep the dvd, but convert the blu ray disc into a coaster for my drinks(paint the bottom of the disc with black marker), so there!!
