Name That Burger!
The Mc.... As some of you may or may not be aware, McDonald's is running a competition to name it's newest burger creation.
I noticed this the other day on a lunch break from work. It's rare that I will wander into a McDonald's but when you're on a later shift all the other food places in walking distance seem to shut up shop around 1pm, so if you happen to have a lunch break at 3pm Maccas is about your best bet.
So I walk on up to the counter and see this "Name it burger" .. sure it looks pretty damn awesome in the picture, but then again don't they all? I'm not even going to lie and say I ordered one, because I didn't. What are supposed to ask for anyways? Their Turkey and Cranberrie rolls are ok so I stick with them.
But anyways, I thought maybe BNU could join in the fun and enter some nice names for this burger.
If you go to http://www.nameitburger.com.au/index_flash.html and try to ignore the HILARIOUSLY FUNNY FLASH FILM CLIP, you can click on the link to enter the competition and name the burger.
There is a bit of a cheat sheet here, just to give you a helping hand.
The ingredients of the new burger are as follows:
Homestyle beef
Tatsoi salad mix
Steak and Onion sauce
Grilled Onions
Tomato
Tasty Cheese
I've come up with a few so far:
The McMeh
The Coroner's Friend
McWhopper
McMickMcSick
McHammer <-- I thought this one was rather clever.
McLooksAndSoundsLikeEveryOtherFastFoodBurgerExceptItHasSteakAndOnionSauceOnIt
Kevin
McBaine
McDundee
McJagger
and finally
McMcMickMcMcMickMickMcStutter Burger
Give it a go guys!
QuarterPounder with Poof Lettuce, please?
But the choice is clear: it has to be
KEVIN!
The Mc Gordon-Stewart? Mc Nattie? I wonder if they'll come out with a spatchcock or turkey offering?
Ismail, how many times do you need to be told? Go and stick your head up a turkey you goose. BTW, there is a rather large man on the loose in the Western Creek are. Anyone with information is advised to ring crimestoppers.
Hold on, I have the full report here.
"Video Ezy in Weston Creek was robbed yesterday afternoon. The report I have received indicates that the large male offender managed to barge through the locked front door of the store shortly after it closed for the day, whilst the two female shop attendants were finishing up their end of day procedures. The offender got away with $225 in cash. At present I don’t have a description of the offender other than him being rather large, and I normally wouldn’t report on such a robbery here, however the fact that the offender managed to barge through the locked front door of the Video Ezy store makes him potentially more dangerous than your average robber, and the story a lot more interesting. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 Samuel" http://samuelgordonstewart.com/2007/07/video-ezy-weston-creek-robbed
Back to the topic at hand. I am with Monsieur Fruck. Kevin it is.

News just to hand ... he pedalled from the scene on a Malvern Star bicycle, believed to have been stolen from a garden shed marked B1_B5 at Wanniassa.
1970's Malvern Star "Family
Star" model bicycle with 3 speed Shimano hub gears, extra-wide
mudguards, chain guard, and 22 inch wheels with Araya
chrome rims.
Tyres are 22 x 1.75, and are not readily available from most
tyre suppliers, but they are still being made in Thailand by
Vee Rubber.
The bicycle was made in Australia by General Accessories
of Mount Waverley in Victoria, around 1973.
The serial number of the bike is 1041574.
It was assembled from imported Japanese bicycle parts.
The Malvern Star is well made, and is very reliable, despite
being almost 35 years old.
The "Family" model with its 22 inch wheels and 3 speed hub
gears is highly manoeuvreable and extremely comfortable
to ride.
How the hell would a rather large man pedal from the scene on a Malvern Star "Family model" bicycle? It may be an extremely comfortable ride but not practical at all. I thought that bicycle was knocked off many moons ago anyhow. Anyone with information on the theft of the bicycle can contact crimestoppers on 1800 333 000.
Word on the street in Weston is that the rather large man exited the scene on a simplified version of a V2 rocket which makes him potentially more dangerous than your average robber.
UPDATE
The "rather large man" has been described as a male, Caucasian, approximately 30 years old, 168cms (5’6”) tall wearing a dark jumper and pants.
Witnesses last saw the offender leaving the area on a bicycle, recklessly waving Lawsie's Golden Microphone about.
/END UPDATE
All I can say is "thank God" Samuel is keeping the people of Weston Creek up-to-date ... they will no doubt be constantly refreshing their screens on his blog, and not leaving their houses until this 168cm behometh if finally cought, or gunned down as the mad dog he is!
This is what happens when you let vertically challenged people into the work force. Everyone else is a giant.
I'm betting the behemeth was pissed at only knocking of the float from the till at the Video Ezy so he pedalled all the way to 2UE on B1B8's Malvern Star to knock of the infamous gold dipped Sennheiser JL 007 microphone.
UPDATE
News just in. The rather large man is Stan Zemenick who has faked his own death to win the ratings.
Go stick your head up a turkey Ismail. I did not read your comment fully before posting mine...
I hope that you can help me. I know that you have a rule preventing people who post here from posting on other websites, and I appreciate that you have been lenient with me in regards to this rule, however I have come to the conclusion that I am mildly addicted to posting on various blogs.
Dr. Holly, I hope you can help me with this addiction. Do you think this is a healthy addiction? Any advice you may have is most welcome.
Ismail
Good for you Ismail. Admission is the first step to recovery. I don't want to say I told you so but for ages I have been trying to tell you to stop spamming shock jocks and going on lunch cruises with people 8 times your age. As far as posting at other blogs goes, you know my rule is clad in iron and you are on thin ice. Consider yourself warned. If you only knew was said about you in the 2cc lunch room.
Southern Cross Radio will be sending you the bill for the industrial size shredder they needed to purchase to get rid of all your emails and additional staff have had to be employed to cope with you ringing every program numerous times per minute. You have also been put on notice also for making Maquarie's shares take a dive.
I have to go now as I am too busy chasing down some leads in regards to finding Lawslies golden microphone...the one that was stolen not the other golden microphone he is using. He has a safe full of them. The safe is made from gold too.
I digress. The best advice I can give you Ismail is to go and stick your head up a turkey you goose and stop fucking calling other shows!

Thanks for your advice Holly, and thankfully it's in confidence, which means no-one else will read it.
I will take your advice - it's time to saddle up on my Malvern Star with the Thailand-made tyres and make a dramatic exit from this, and all other blogs.
I know I am on thin ice, but I also don't want to get in the crossfire ... there's about as much chance of me coming back as there would be of winning a lottery you hadn't bought a ticket in! I am a (large 168cm) man of my word!
Good luck with the turkey. Now back to my memories of Stan.
Stan did many good things behind the scenes, and I think a lot of people are only finding out about them now that he is gone.
A few things which spring to mind are that Stan helped out “Bruce The Goose” with various bills (no joke) that he had difficulty paying, Stan would take the time to contact people who had been genuinely offended by something Stan had said and written in about it…Stan wasn’t really out to offend people, the show was an act, and the majority of the callers accepted that and rang in just to be yelled at.
Stan did many good things away from the radio station as well. One thing in particular that springs to mind is that he, when he found out that a neighbour had hired a babysitter, made an effort to let the neighbour know that they didn’t need to spend money on a babysitter as he and Marcella would be more than happy to do the job for free*.
Off the air Stan was a gentle, kind soul, and well respected within the media industry as a result. (insert joke)
*Industry secret. She does require #### #### upon request!
need to a) get a room b) start your own SGS fan site.
What is the obsession with this guy?
And aren't comments here supposed to be about the burger article? I may have to start getting 'peculiar & very rude', but before I do I'll just say: please try to stay on topic or write your own piece about SGS and direct your comments to that.
The whole thing is getting very tiresome.
Thanks
I am going to blame Ismail for leading me up the garden path Vincent - he is all to aware of my vices.
I am all for a complete boycott of SGS related material.
The burger is the issue here not that spoilt little time waster!
No harm if it's relevant, but it relates to nothing on BNU at the moment. Anyone who doesn't follow the minutiae of SGS (e.g. me)has no idea what you guys are on about. I've been guilty of having a go at him too. But seriously, this is too much.
The McGuyver.

The McCrack N Sack Burger
McCatheta, anyone?
