  5. Read this man's story and learn how hard he worked to get his business started. It's amazing story.
    Yet Elizabeth Warren, a woman who has built a total of squat in her entire life, would say "He didn't build that".

  6. So iconic. It used to be a really big deal, special occasion where we lived in the 60's-70's, get the Colonel's big bucket dinner with all the fixings. It was so savory and the meat was superb. Its not so much now. Too bad. Guess almost everything ain't what it was somehow. Seems Wendy's still got it going pretty decent quality, not quite as good while Dave was still running it.
