yeah, the krispy kreme doughnuts are gross. The only time I even eat a donut (a french curler) is at DD when I get a lemondae coolata :D

Psst. It's "crueller". :D A French curler is a type of Canadian athlete from Montreal.

Now Gary, if you're gonna teach him to spell, teach him correctly. It's Cruller, not crueller. :)

heh, I thought it was Cruller, that's what it says on the rack, I thought it was just a typo. But when most people order one they say "curler"

I bow my head in shame. I was using as my spelling guide, a number of bakery websites that were using the incorrect spelling. Why I just didn't check a dictionary, I do not know. Thirty lashes with a wet cruller.

Those people are idiots, like people who say "nuculer". (Present company excepted.)

The rule is, "You may only correct spelling if you know the correct spelling and usage without consulting a dictionary, or any online resource."

Vigilante spell checkers- the Insurgents of the Internet.

They followed the basic American company pathway:
1. Expand really big too fast.
2. Think that high calorie, pure sugar product is a good long term food idea!
3. Get surprised by low carb craze & media buzz over fat American swhoeat too mych sugar!!!! :D
4. LOSE their ass (kinda like Voom?)
5. Can old CEO (with great golden parachute), hire turnaround CEO, employees get fired & lose benefits.
6. Close stores & shrink down to a size that they were BEFORE expansion. :p

You forgot between 3 and 4:
3.1 Go public.
3.2 Overestimate earnings and/or underestimate expenses to make the stock price look good.
