MISSING SHAMROCK SHAKES?
It was Friday night and I realized St. Patrick's Day was less than 24 hours away, and I was overwhelmed with a horrible realization. I had not had a Shamrock Shake from McDonalds this year. "How could this be?", I asked myself. Well, the thing is although I'd been to McDonalds recently, it seems they're NOT SERVING Shamrock Shakes. At the McDonalds on 7th Standard Road, the girl I talked to at the drive thru had no idea what a Shamrock Shake was (What? Does she live in a cave?). She says depending on the owner, some McDonalds may have them, and some may not. Sooooo... if you know where they are serving Shamrock Shakes, let us know! Email me at bmichaels@977thebreeze.com. Based on the response we got this morning, our listening audience will thank you!
