But Denise was not finished: "...because it has a long neck and it is pink." Only 72% of the third-graders in the state passed a recent reading test; for Mading the figure...
...Golden Arches the way they have stormed toy stores in search of Beanie Babies, the gotta-have-it-or-I'm going-to-hold-my-breath-until-I-turn-blue toy of the moment. Order a Happy Meal, and you'll get either Patti the Platypus or Pinky the Flamingo, the first two of a series of miniature Beanie Babies McD's is giving away. Get there soon.
