Quick! Put out an Amber Bock Alert!

She wanted her McNUGGETS, people!

I happen to back her on this. In this economy, we should get what we pay for, right? Even gray-ish, chicken-like, disc-shaped food products.

So she picked up her cell phone and dialed 911. Not once, not twice, but three times.

Seems police don’t think absence of McNuggets is an emergency. (But let Dunkin Donuts run dry, and, well…)

McDonald’s has since apologized and refunded the money but Latreasa may be McScarred for life.

Elsewhere in Florida, on Wednesday, a man trying to save a parking space for his wife at a Murphy USA gas station stood in the space waiting for her to pull up.

Another driver pulled into the spot and intentionally struck the man in the knees. Then he backed up and did it again, witnesses said.

Well, sure. I can see that. Apparently, no one told the man about the “no holdies” rule. Who wouldn’t be upset at this break in parking lot etiquette?

The victim’s knees were bruised and swollen, according to The News-Press in Fort Myers. He will survive and likely emerge a better citizen.

See? People are coming together.

As a nation, we are saying, “Lean on me … and I will push your fat hindend right off.”

It warms my heart.
