Procrastination

Dear Togo's,

Thank you ever so much for not putting your nutritional information on your site. Everyone else does it, but there you are, bucking the trend, you rebel you. It does lead me to wonder if there's something you don't want me to know about the Shanghai Chicken sandwich, though. See, even though you don't publish your nutritional info, other people do. But that info is incomplete. In fact, nobody seems to have the numbers on your daily specials - which are, of course, the sandwiches I actually eat when I visit your fine establishments. Perhaps you fear I'll discover that I'm better off picking up a #2 at In-N-Out? But alas, I don't get to find out, do I?

Dear Togo's fan:
The person that I sopke with on the 800 # would have been more than pleased to speak to me, about nutrition had I been able to supply him with the name of the sandwich, which I could not bring up...
but I did find this

Dear MSN Travel Page writers,

When you give an article a title like "Top Ten Affordable European Cities", I expect to see information that does not include $400 hotels.

Dear Maddy's School -

Why are cookies, gatoraide, waters, ice cream and chips offered for sale on your menu? Not only offered but for exorbident prices. Have you not read about the issues with poor childhood nutrition?

Dear Michael Eisner,

You should write a book on management. I really admired the way you surrounded yourself with people who got on board with your vision. After all, who's the leader here? There is no place for naysayers in an organization... they should take their pert opinions and go <bleep> themselves. After all, you didn't hire them to sit there and be negative! I always admired your willingness to fire even your closest friends if they challenged your vision. Now that's what I call leadership!

Sure it led to some bad moves that eventually cost you your job and your professional reputation, but really, I don't think it was your fault. It was all those damn internet people with their opinions and chatter. And the economy. Sure Michael, it wasn't your fault like all your enemies said it was (because let's be honest, anyone who wasn't on board with you was just being unhelpful and clearly had a score to settle with you). Nah... it was the economy, stupid! (Oops, I hope you didn't take that to mean that I was calling YOU stupid, because I think you so totally rock, you genius! It was just a quote, I swear) But yeah, if 9-11 hadn't happened your brilliant ideas would have panned out and nobody on your team would have turned against you and gone running to the media behind your back.

So seriously Michael, when are you going to write that management book so I can learn how to be a famous ex-CEO like you?

Sincerely,

Maya Tongincheek

I swear, I wasn't anywhere near Ventura County!

Dear Beagle,

You ruled. Thank you for seven years of doggone good times.
