    List of Ingredients

    (October 5, 1902 - January 14, 1984)

    Before setting up the a fast-food restaurant chain, Ray Kroc was a high school dropout, ambulance driver, jazz pianist, Florida real-estate salesman, radio station manager, and paper cup salesman.

    In 1954 he was a distributor for a line of blenders which could mix 5 milk shakes at the same time. One of his customers was a restaurant in San Bernardino, California owned by Maurice and Richard McDonald.

    Kroc set up a chain of drive-in restaurants based on the McDonald brothers model of assembly line preparation for high volume food sales. He opened his first restaurant on April 15, 1955 in Des Plaines, Illinois. By 1961 he had 228 restaurants and he bought out the McDonald brothers.

    When he died in 1984 there were over 7,500 McDonald's restaurants.

    HUMOR...THOUGHTS TO GET YOU THROUGH ANY CRISIS

    Indecision is the key to flexibility.

    There is absolutely NO substitute for a genuine lack of preparation.

    Happiness is merely the remission of pain.

    Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be.

    Sometimes too much to drink is not enough.

    The facts, although they may be interesting, are irrelevant.

    The careful application of terror is also a form of communication.

    Someone who thinks logically provides a nice contrast to the real world.

    Things are more like they are today than they ever were before.

    Anything worth fighting for is worth fighting dirty for.

    Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.

    Friends may come and go, but enemies accumulate.

    I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.

    This is probably as bad as it can get, but don’t count on it.

    If you think that there’s good in everyone, you haven’t met everyone.

    All other things equal, fat people use more soap.

    If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

    One seventh of your life is spent on Mondays.

    By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends.

    Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that live is serious.
