an ambitious breakfast plan denied

as i was dropping James off at Grandma and Grandad this morning, my way to work involved me driving along a road that had a KFC drivethrough proudly on it. imagine my dismay to discover that they are not open to serve breakfast at 6:30am

this is really unfair, very shortsighted and not the kind of slack behaviour that would be tolerated if The Colonel was still with us. it is ridiculous that the world at large can at that time of the morning call in at McD and have a Big Mac and a diet coke for breakfast, yet one cannot go and have a class tower rounder burger, or even a bucket of fine, fried chicken to start the day off with.

with some luck, someone senior or well connected with the institute that is KFC will read this and immediatley launch a Fried Chicken Breakfast range. they could even stick some eggs, toast and coffee in with the bucket if that helps make it all the more breakfast style to appeal to the masses, i suppose.


there is of course one of us, if you take us as being the human race, who would have championed the idea of The Colonel for breakfast. he probably did, and may very well still do, have KFC for breakfast. i speak, in the most respectful terms, of Elvis of course.

with Elvis still in hiding and refusing to make a wide, public comeback, it is unlikely that he will endorse my campaign as such, but as i suspect that he is an avid reader of my site, who knows? maybe the idea of a bucket of KFC, coated in The King's special recipie peanut butter, for breakfast may inspire him to reveal where he has been hiding for some 30 years and come out in support of a KFC breakfast range.

if anyone knows of any KFC in South Africa that is open for breakfast, please let me know so i can make arrangements to take a detour that way in the morning. if some other country in the world is so lucky as to have a breakfast-serving KFC, please let me know and i shall consider moving my family to that obviously forward thinking nation.

be very excellent to each other.

Scary stuff.

If this was The King's breakfast, there is a chance that he indeed died of some sort of heart attack at the age of 42.
