I like the food better at IHOP than at Denny's, but Denny's is cheaper and they care less about us being loud and obnoxious.

IHOP is owned by the same company that owns Applebee's, IIRC, and it's not doing well either.

I'm glad you posted your photos on the Eden Photographers Blog, by the way. I'll get around to critiquing them next week.
Thanks! I just got some new pics of raindrops in a birdbath, don't know how well they'll turn out though.

Works for me, but some beavers are better kissers than others.

It won't matter if they all go under. Some new hideously gross Americana hole will fill the void.

A little bit of American flag related trivia for you all, and this has been brought to you by Kindred, who rocks for sending me the link for it.


1. Betsy Ross made the first American flag.
The Betsy Ross story is the most tenacious piece of fiction involving the flag. There simply is no credible historical evidence — letters, diaries, newspaper accounts, bills of sale — that Ross (then known as Elizabeth Claypoole) either made or had a hand in designing the American flag before it made its debut in 1777.

The story cropped up in 1870, almost 100 years after the first flag was supposedly sewn, when William Canby, Ross’s grandson, told the Historical Society of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia that his grandmother made the flag at George Washington’s behest. Canby’s sole evidence: affidavits from family members. The iconic 1893 painting of Ross sitting in her Philadelphia parlor with the sun beaming down on the flag in her lap is a scene invented by Charles H. Weisgerber, the artist and entrepreneur who profited from the Betsy Ross legend.

While Ross did make flags in Philadelphia in the late 1770s, it is all but certain that the story about her creating the American flag is a myth.

No, that was during Baconalia... It had a whole menu devoted to bacon. There was even a sundae with bacon and maple syrup. The waiter made me a miniature version to try and it would have been better if it wasn't all syrup lol.

Fashionably late, if I do say so myself.

Was busy doing a little shopping. Didn't have enough for what I was originally planning to order, but made off with a Liberator BonBon. Woot

At the fruit beer festival I went to a few weeks ago, they had maple-bacon ice cream, and it was incredible. One of the signature donuts at the famous Voodoo Doughnuts in Portland is the maple-bacon bar. That's really good too.
