The Times are a Changin

Just a short little rant. When I was growing up, Arby's was famous for their "Western Roast Beef" Sandwiches. I am not sure the difference between western and eastern roast beef but ok. They even had a cowboy hat on their sign. Now that cowboy hat has morphed into a potholder. I dont get it. Bring back the hat!

Also, Kentucky Fried Chicken changed their name to KFC because they thought it would have more appeal and be hipper. Now they are playing Lynard Skynard's "Sweet Home Alabama" in the background of their commercials. What does "SHA" have to do with fried chicken? Somebody please tell me. I am not complaining about listening to Skynard. I love Skynard but I just dont see the connection. The only Skynard song I could think of that mentions chickens was "The Ballad of Curtis Lowe" but that chicken is actually a rooster getting ready to crow.
