Youve always got a friend wearing big red shoes

 Ronald McDonald























































In many ways, Ronalds is a face Ive grown up with. I saw him every Saturday morning, he was on my Happy Meal box, I would eat his head from a McDonaldLand cookie package, and hes on those plastic bibs that teenagers still like to goof around with.

Yeah, I get mixed feelings about the whole thing. I know hes a mascot for a huge fast food corporation, but hes also a permanent part of my childhood. What can you say?

Youd have to think; If McDonalds had first opened today, there probably never be a Ronald McDonald, what with the socially-conscious, do-gooder, "Oh, think of the CHILDREN!" generation we live in.
