Their gravy isn't really that good, either.

Took a half day off work today so that I could take crankyliberal and acsumama to breakfast before they took off for parts west. It was their first opportunity to taste grits, and they weren't impressed.

We discussed plans for a business selling Giant Roadside Aluminum Crosses that would burst into flame at the touch of a button, which we could sell to target markets of religious fundamentalists and klansmen. We also discussed the ins and outs of immigration law as it relates to decent Mexican food and drinking, and the recent expansion of Siskind Susser in Memphis, which would have made the cross-country road trip considerably shorter.

We commented on the mythical Mason-Dixon line becoming the "Waffle House--IHOP Line," and I commented that a more accurate measure would be the "White Castle-Krystal Line," which brought a stare of confusion from crankyliberal proving the truth of my theory, and I revealed that the secret drunken White Castle-esque burger was available in doughnut shops in and around New Orleans, but it was a secret. I showed them the secret ZTA handshake.
