Southern Living

I thought I'd share a little bit of local color in the form of an arresting headline I just saw: "Again, car crashes into Waffle House."

When people around here are ready for breakfast, they are ready for it now. I guess Waffle House will have to erect a (large) sign stating "We regret that Drive-Thru service is NOT available." It's a shame, because their waffles are so sublime--but, granted, difficult to consume safely while driving.

First at no juncture in time will a sign at any Waffle House use the word "Regret". And yes it is true Waffle House are truly some "Good Eats", any reference to there menu as "Sublime", though grammatical correct is just wrong. If ever I saw a Waffle House donning the words "Regret" or "We regret to inform you, that our sublime Waffles are not available through any drive-thru service. We apologize for any inconvenience and look forward to the pleasure of your company soon". I would first close my jaw agape, then I would turn to the book of revelation, where it reads, "and lo the seventh seal was broken and the scroll opened to reveal a sublime waffle.....

Mmmm waffles...

When I die, I want to be incinerated on a pyre of waffles; or be buried in a coffin constructed entirely of waffles.....

All the guests will be so hypnotised by the divine aroma, and in their reverie will exclaim: 'oh my god, who'd ever thought death could smell so sweet!'...

And then famished ravens will scavenge for the crumby remains...'never more!' they'll cry....and then 'thank Satan for that...'

The epitaph will read:

'...lived for waffles, and died for waffles....'

God, I waffle...
