Well, you've read the notes, the notes were Zagat rated the best on all the Internet, and now it is time for you to post until the Zagat rated cows come home.

Good morning, all!  I am happy to hear about the upcoming change. It tpok me over 30 minutes to log on this morning.

It is supposed to be a very hot day, so I am going to run down to Toyland, pick up a few things and be home and into the A/C as quickly as possible.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  Good Midweek Vibes for everyone! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bruce-- give Five Guys Burgers a shot sometime.  Their burgers are simple and good, and their fries are aces.  I'm not saying they're the absolute best burgers anywhere, but they're darned good.

I'm not a fan of Zagat (Although I like Tim and Nina Zagat) or Yelp or any of the online reviews because I don't know who these people are or what their tastes are like. So I don't know what they're basing their writing on.

I thought Zagat's was based on customer ratings. You still have the same problem - you don't know the reviewer's biases - but I don't think the ratings are written by the Zagats themselves.

I agree. Back when I ate such things, I thought they were pretty darned good.

A late good morning, all.

A day off here, though just because I'm not going anywhere doesn't mean I don't have things to do.  Just procrastinating for a while.

No. And they sold it years ago. But I know restaurants who campaign heavily for their scores.

I don't believe I have eat burgers at any of those places mentioned. We do have a 5 Guys here in Salem, Oregon, 97305, but I try to stay out of that zip code.

I do, however, love a fried egg (over medium) as a topping on a burger...or on top of pancakes or breakfast type potatos.

And I am home. I do wish the MTA would enforce the ruling that walkers must be collapsible so that they do not block the aisle of the bus.  I was hoping to see one old broad who had completely blocked the front aisle thrown off.

Sandy Wilson has died. That's so sad.

I think I will listen to The Boy Friend and wish him a speedy voyage.
