The best Shipley is the one on at 12403 Westheimer by far. They have hot glazed 24 hours a day. The coffee menu here is like Starbucks. A lot of locations have started selling Frappes but this one has all kinds of coffee drinks and expresso.

That being said, Shipley is like Whataburger. Best fast food place of its kind, but it isn’t better than mom and pop shops. Bernie’s Burger Bus has better burgers than Whataburger, and the Glazed Donut Cafe has better donuts and coffee than Shipley.

And also, Dallas has plenty of Shipleys. Are we going to not count Houston’s Whataburger just because they didn’t start in Housron?

I don't care what you count or don't count! I was simply passing along a tip to @Julio July. He can take it or leave it.

Of course. Used to go to the one on Abram in Arlington when I lived there.

Then tell me, all-wise EDS...who's fault is it when I'm the topic of the next day's morning news? Please...this oughta be good!

So tell me how is it "bogus" when you are warned that a powerful force of nature like a hurricane is about to flatten your city, yet you decide to stay put...and the worst happens?

Again, I'm listening. Make it make sense. Please explain to me what's BOGUS about his statement.
