After all, what's in it for him? |

Tried Terra and it was predictably dry. I've been to burger place like this before, where they claim to be healthy and offer the leanest meat available. Unfortunately, ground sirloin makes a dry burger. It had the consistency of a hockey puck. That was too bad, since everything else (especially the BBQ sauce) was tasty. I've heard a lot of people recommending Hut's. I've also driven past Dirty Martin's, but it didn't look too promising. |

The Big **** still hasn't removed the skidmarks from its face. It's either a case of poor QC, or a user error. Arnii, your birth was a user error. Everything else is fate. BTW, in your absence, Scottie Witlessmongrel has taken to emulating your poor use of language. Do you realize that your fractured "sentence" has 11 words and 3 errors? I'm still amazed you haven't been hauled off to the loony bin by now. |
