I did notice the revamped McD restaurants since last year...

Apparently they're moving towards a new theme McCafe style.

Come to think of it, I remembered that my friend inquired about their kiddie calendar some years back and the guy behind the counter said they don't have it anymore.

My friend was quite sad but I guess it was a gradual process of a company moving with the times...
![Okay... Moving on now... :movingon:](http://e.deviantart.net/emoticons/m/movingon.gif)
I guess our McD experience now will be kinda different without that red and white stripe...yellow jumpsuit fella...
