Award winning post

spelking1.jpgYou may have read last week that McDonald’s was forced to discontinue a report card promotion where one parent was upset. I would like to point out that 30 years ago I was the recipient of a free McDonald’s hamburger due to good grades. To the right is my award (click to enlarge) for Mathematics and Spekling. And I didn’t become addicted to McDonalds — I have not had a McDonald’s hamburger since junior high. My problem is that I consider a bag of chips a challenge.

    A business offering incentives for good grades is once thing — my promotion of choice was at the local arcade, where you got 3 tokens for each A and 1 for each B — but putting ads on the report cards themselves is pretty creepy.
