I will never partake their great salad bar irl again! No more great burgers! I will short them into oblivion from now on! How could they lose money in a quarter where consumers awash in money from low gasoline prices, spent so much money in restaurants?  |

Congratulations to you, Mod, for the "collar of roses" spot... & to Uncle for the "Place" spot. And I usually do the
percentages also shortly after the race is over. And I was wondering how Clark would describe the closeness of
me and Tyfighter.... good descriptive comment, Clark. I was telling someone, I got 3rd by only a couple of inches. LOL.
