[http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060501/ap\_on\_re\_us/restaurant\_finger](http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060501/ap_on_re_us/restaurant_finger) BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - A diner found a piece of human flesh on his hamburger shortly after a restaurant worker accidentally cut his finger, and a spokeswoman said the company was “very, very sorry.” I’ve never eaten there, but I know where it is. Is this national news or just Indiana news? ---

I wonder if that’s on their Atkin’s approved menu. Kinda puts a new twist on giving the finger, don’t it? ---

I was talking to my roommate and I said that this is going to be hell for business. So I’m hoping TGI Fridays starts having really good deals in order to woo customers back. Perhaps they’ll have appetizers for $2 and meals for $4 or something. ---

I’ve always worried about Janko’s Little Zagreb. . . but they’d have entire hands in your food. (is that place still open, BTW. HAS to be.) ---

Note to self: When next in Bloomington, eat at Cheeseburger in Paradise… Obviously a freak accident… and loving to cook myself I’ve managed to cut myself pretty badly, but that would undoubtedly ruin my appetite… Kinda like the time I found a beetle in an Applebees salad. ---
