    These Waffle Houses...
    Search continues for Tupelo Waffle House shooting suspect

    Shooting on S. Gloster St, 20 people inside when the actions started. Couple of good things, it is only a couple of hundred yards from the scene to the North Mississippi Medical Center. Mixed hulls in parking lot, rifle and pistol. Victim was roaded via private auto around to emergency and is OK, perp cut a trail and not located yet. No danger to truckers. Place too small to be accessible to rigs.

    Me and Mom ate at Crapplebees several months ago. Food was ok but service was Crap. As a result, I left no tip. Mom is of the opinion you should tip even if service is crap.

    Good thing you didn’t. I was still at home being a lazy slug/half arsed mechanic. Would have been cool to meet you and the OM.

    Meeting the OM means you have made it in life.

    Speaking of Waffle House, two drivers ahead of me last night said they had never ate there. Thats Un-American. Shame on them.

    The OM is extremely reclusive when it comes to folks she's unfamiliar with.

    So..
    I ordered the nastiest, greasiest cheeseburger the dude could make.
    He wanted to know why.
    Told him, after I get this load off, gotta run 35 miles to next load, then 515 loaded miles over by Ruston LA, and I’m going to need to drive late into the night/morning, and it’s much easier with indigestion and belching up the nasty tasting food all night makes it easier.

    The Trucker combo…
    Still needs more grease, though and the ketchup and mayo and mustard combo is just down right nasty.

    I wanted greasy and nasty though..

    "Ah, a little light running snack" would be how the late Mr. Robert Thornton (Shorty) Moore would have characterized this lovely item....
