Let's say, hyptothetically, that one is not feeling in the mood to cook and decides to pop over to the local deep-country, middle-of-Pennsylvania-nowhere diner to get a dinner to-go (seeing as how, you know, we don't exactly have Applebee's out here in the cornfield). And let's further say that the waiting area for the diner's to-go orders is ( Read more... )

There isn't one of us who hasn't been faced with these situations. There is no pat answer to what I would do. But I do know that you did what you should do when the conflict becomes potentially physical. There is a difference between the awful pseudo religious and political rhetoric, and the veiled threats of strangers. They both come from the same place but the latter is much more dangerous ( ... )

Oh, you snugglepuss. I can always count on you for the voice of moral reason.

Was this, by any chance, the Old Country Buffet over by the Barnes and Noble and the Old Navy? My little adventure happened over at The Delta Diner in York County (near Whitford on the Mason Dixon Line, just across the Norman Wood Bridge), and the whole time I was leaving there I was like "God, York, serves me right for coming over here, the slime bags". Remind me to tell you how my mom called 911 the other day to report a brush fire she was seeing on the other side of the Susquehanna, and when she got on the horn with the call center even the Lancaster 911 operators were more or less like "York, huh? Just let the shithole burn".

By the way, did you know about this? That we fought a WAR with York County in the 18th Century? Maryland attempted to establish a colony over there, and I have to say--I more or less think the confederate bitches succeded.

oh...just one? I really can't say. That place is to food what a bathhouse is to sex. One of the things that I love about it is all the stuff that I had never ever heard of like...I think it's called mash? maybe mush...its in a loaf and it just...I don't even know what it is but I like it. I just like it all. Not the scrapple...uh no no no.

Now I want to go. That would only be what...178 points right??

SO WORTH IT!

That would be known as fried cornmeal mush, or perhaps corned beef hash? LOL.

I can actually eat the mush. It is Core. Polenta is the same thing.

I miss the warm glazed cinnamon buns. I truly do. Jim misses it too. Both of us are telling each other that we "really shouldn't go there for breakfast" on Friday, before we head to Bear Trek. That's our code for "maybe I should really feel him out about the idea of going there for breakfast".

If I were you I would say that going to shady maple before going to bear trek would be a really nice and well deserved treat and after all I have no doubt that you will be getting a work out over the weekend.

If you go I want a detailed report.

LOL. True. I can actually get things there that I like too. The best part is the very wide variety of foods.
