Chick-fil-A store opens on Sunday so boy with special needs can fulfill his birthday wish
Yahoo Lifestyle, Jan 14, 2019

A 14-year-old boy who has autism got to celebrate his birthday by fulfilling one of his wishes at an Alabama Chick-fil-A.

One store in Mobile, Ala., opened its doors on Sunday, when Chick-fil-A is typically closed, for Elijah Sprague so he could help run the drive-thru.

Walt Gilstrap, the manager of the restaurant and Elijah’s uncle, along with the owner, Mr. Glen, let Elijah run the drive-thru window where he passed out cookies to about 40 cars. The participants then went inside the Chick-fil-A to finish celebrating Elijah’s day with a festive cookie cake, Mobile, Ala., news station WKRG reported.

CFA is run by good people.  If I'm going to eat fast food and CFA is a choice, I will choose it every time.

We don’t have a Chik-fill-A here in the north country. I went to one years ago in Fla. and it was alright. It was around that time the left engaged in that failed boycott.

That's how I feel.   Their chicken sandwich is (for fast food) as good as it gets.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
