Enjoyable day.
I hope everyone had the same day I had. I woke up before dawn, and
went to the country club for a round of golf. Then to the yacht club for some sailing. Then to the VFW, (Mead Hall), for some drinks with many heroes, veterans, and proud warriors. Life is good. And vote for Palin-Ahhhnold in 2012. A mighty Hungarian warrior The blood of Attila runs through me |

It used to make -- in theory, anyway -- the best chain burgers around. Not any more. Carl's Jr. and In 'n' Out share top honors now, depending on which is closer. The sign claims 'car hop service'. Maybe only on weekend evenings.

I don't think the carhops at the Bob's that had car service used roller skates. If they actually offer car service now, it certainly isn't for weekday lunch. There was covered parking, but the cars were empty and there was no sign of a carhop anywhere. When I was in college we always ate breakfast at the Bob's near the school (no carhops, but they did have patio dining). 2 eggs, hash browns and toast for 35 cents. I forgot to check the menu, but a burger, fries and salad (they used to give you a wedge of iceberg, now it's loose lettuce pieces with a slice of cucumber, I guess to please today's more sophisticated tastes; they also leave the peel on the fries) Is $7.50+tax+tip, and it isn't that good. Especially since tax is now 9.75%. Actually, it's nice to see the income-tax-evading poor getting screwed with the sales tax. Anybody know if there's a tax on lottery tickets? -- Cheers, Bev XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX "Tip: Place your houseplants in front of the television during the next presidential debate and watch how leafy they get." -- Scott Adams |

We have Bob Big Boys but it is a dying breed that can be seen on the Turnpike (toll road) and near some off ramps of major expressways, there is still one left two towns over from me.

Lottery tickets *are* a tax on the poor! A *tax* is something that you have no choice but to pay. |
