oh yeah, in indiana they have these places called "Waffle Steak" which looks exactly like waffle house but just named different, yet i did see this generic looking hand-painted road sign that was advertising a waffle-house but was definatly not the same waffle house chain. Interesting no? Also.... when i had grits at waffle house, they were cold. Im not positive, but i dont think grits are supposed to be cold. Which brings me to my next digression, I was grocery shopping last week and saw a box of "smooth grits" doesnt this seem like an oxymoron? Arnt grits supposed to be gritty? Its like saying "Cream of Sand" or something. I dont get it. I just want to add that im enjoying this wafflehouse discussion much more thouroghly than i was the aetheist one. Waffle On! zach ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
