I second what Steve Murphy said...I remember getting these when I was a little kid at a nearby diner...also Big Bird cupcakes. The mound of icing + sprinkles = amazing cupcake!
I'm not a McCain fan but I think it was just bad phrasing when you have to think on your feet...i'm sure he meant to say something like "this guy" but we've all said the wrong things at times (just not in front of a national audience)
I studied abroad in London and saw tons of first year students (18 - the legal drinking age) come stumbling in EVERY night - in other words, the low drinking age definitely did NOT make them more mature drinkers!! So I really feel that is a myth. I agree with the idea of raising the military age to 21 though!
Thanks for the introduction!!
