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
