Congratulations to Jimmy Johnson for winning the First Chase win in Dover.

Jimmy & Denny Hamlin ( who I am pulling for this season) are tied with 6 race wins.

I found the hostess the night we went to be a bit apathetic. The food was pretty good although I will mention that the meatloaf slice was a bit on the thin side and you only get one. If they didn't give you so many sides I probably would have left hungry.

Hmmm... everything I hear about that place makes me want to try it. I find the entree at most restaurants to be WAY too big. Maybe this place, if its entrees really are smallish, and with its several sides, is just what I need.

Also, great review in the Observer a couple months ago.

As far as leaving hungry goes, if that happens maybe you can just benefit from the restaurant's programs to feed the hungry. From the Observer article linked to above:

Money goes to hunger relief, in Charlotte and elsewhere, and the goal is to hire and train struggling youths and adults with the idea of creating careers and ministering to the needy.
To me, the place sounds like a great way of supporting hunger relief while getting a tasty meal in the process.

That's exactly right, Timm.

Did you drink alot of sodas in the past? My reason for asking is I have a tendency to overdo it at times , and have been warned about this. Also , are there any options besides medication? Based upon your previous posts regarding this , you must be going through the gauntlet dealing with stress associated with these occurrences. Hopefully , the stones will either dissolve , or cease formation. Keep your head up , and good luck!!

I thought that was if they drank alot of diet beverages? I thought I read somewhere that the artificial sweeteners can cause this. I hope it's gone fast Barking!
