Hi Naomi, I am a C4 C5 quadriplegic due to a motor vehicle accident in which my car rolled three times. I was a sober driver for a crazy expedition four of my friends and I were going on. It was midnight or thereabouts when I stopped by my work (second job) and three of my coworkers as well as a good friend of mine started talking about food. The subject of the waffle House chain restaurants came up, and literally spur of the moment we decided to jump in my car and drive to the nearest one. Well, I live in Minneapolis. Therefore the closest one was Kansas City. Somewhere outside of Mason city Iowa, my right rear tire blew out and I lost control of the steering which pulled me to the ditch which catapulted us into the spin. One of the passengers had to have his rotator cuff rebuilt the other three walked away with scratches. It's probably more information than what you're looking for and I think it's a lot funnier with the whole explanation. Truth be told, I'm still craving some cheesy grits from the waffle House (not to mention some of their cinnamon raisin toast with that apple butter, and maybe some covered smothered the list goes on hashbrowns). Journey well through life, Lucinda
