For those new to the blog, my follow-up Friday provides me with an opportunity to update or revise a post from the previous week.
You know sometimes you post about something and you need an update but it doesn’t warrant a whole blog. Or sometimes someone made a comment that really resonated with you. Yup, Follow-Up Friday baby! 🙂
Foster Opportunity – Update
My friend who asked about me fostering Nikko assures me that Nikko will be taken care of. My goal would be to try to get to see Nikko and maybe introduce him to Sampson and Delilah so they could possibly have a play date. I will see what I can do, but I know I can’t take Nikko for a full year.
I’m Sorry If I Offended You McDonalds – Update
There was certainly a lot of talk and publicity about this ad, not surprising none of it was from McDonald’s. I checked the internet but couldn’t find one thing besides the initial retraction. I wish someone would call for a ban on McDonald’s, if only for just one day. Wouldn’t that let them know loud and clear where people stand?
The next day however, my awesome niece posted this picture on my facebook page, don’t you just love it!
We were discussing the ad after obedience class last night and I heard (not verified) that the ice machines at McDonald’s in CT were inspected and they had mold growing inside them! And McDonald’s has the nuggets to put down pit bulls!
That’s another Follow-Up Friday wrap, how did you wrap your week?
Book Update: My book has 10,459 words.
I love the pic your niece left for you, so true!

I’m really chapped about the Mickey D’s ad too. I never really eat there anyway, but I’m determined to not do so now.
Amen Rumpy! I can’t remember the last time I ate there, but I will never eat there again. I won’t even take my grandchildren there.
I am really not in favor of boycotts. From what I have read, this was a radio ad that ran in one isolated market, but the whole corporation is to blame? Isn’t that the same thing as condemning a whole breed because of one bad dog? Sure a boycott might hurt the corporation, but what about the people who work there and the suppliers? Maybe some even own rescue pitbulls. How would hurting their employer/customer help them?
Haha well you know me, I usually have the “other” point of view, (sorry).
