Guy I knew used to work at The Embers, an expensive restaurant in LR. The cook was in a bad mood, and when a guy sent his steak back, he threw it across the kitchen. They ended up getting out from under an industrial refrigerator with a mop. I never send a steak back. ---

> [@The\_Stainless\_Steel\_Rat](#): > > Interesting dinner. Went to Longhorn Steakhouse and had the sirloin medium-well, as is usual. Came out medium at best, so I politely asked them to have the cook put it back on the broiler for another 3 minutes. Took them 10 minutes and they brought the steak out without my french fries. Fries finally showed up just as I was finishing the steak. > > Now understand, I wasn’t upset at all, the food was good and all the staff I interacted with did their best and were professional, I just happened to be the “Murphy” guest that day. Never raised my voice or called down the wrath of whomever upon them. > > And they comped my meal. Surprised, I was, but if they want to get a loyal customer, well, that’s one way to do it. > > Digesting happily now. Years ago, I used to Mystery Shop Longhorn. Never had a bad meal, they are dear price wise, but worth it quality wise. Of course I also fondly remember dining at the Hilltop Steak House, with the Filet meal was $6.95, but that was circa the invention of dirt. ---

> [@Buttercup\_Smith](#): > > Yesterday was 5 weeks of being a non smoker. Hooray. Still very hard to resist but I am determined! Have you figured out what to do with the extra money yet, or are you just buying Krugerrands? ---

It’s hot as all get out here in Kansas. I had to work early in the morning, then made a quick trip to see my mom and do anything that needed doing at her house. Other than that I’ve stayed inside. Air conditioning is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. ---

> [@missred](#): > > After 22 years in the midsouth, I’ve accepted that sweat is a way of life. 😛 My beloved grandmother and grandfather kept their house here like a freezer in the summer. I figure they were entitled to it, after living through the summers in the 30’s, without even a fan. Grandma loved modern appliances, and didn’t pine for the past. ---

Heat’s fine. Humidity is the reason I don’t leave the mountains in the summer. ---
