If you're in Denny's and it's your birthday, your life sucks!

Not all 'mericans have been able to milk and bilk Uncle Sam for the over generous pension and benefits as y'all did, Johnny.

No some people were able to dodge the draft and let other people put
their life on the line to protect the country for a salary that did
not even meet the minimum wage at the time.
If you lived that life for over two decades, you deserve that pension.
Give John a break.


You may have missed this comment from him...which triggered my response.
" If you're in Denny's and it's your birthday, your life sucks!"

Not sure if I've ever been in a Denny's restaurant but I wouldn't belittle others who may only be able to treat their families to modest surroundings.
Guess we should just mark it up to different cultures.

Denny's is an OK place to go get a grand slam after the bars close but
I am not sure most people would consider it a birthday present. It is
basically a Waffle House without the "Scattered and Smothered" home
fries.


Whenever we drive "souf" and leave early in the morning, we drive down
301 until we hit a good, close crossover to I-95, and have breakfast at
a Waffle House. Love that food once in a while and, of course, there is
always plenty of drama at a Waffle House.

Don't you just hop on 207 right past AP Hill? (another evil name that
has to change)

Yup...there's a Waffle House there just on the other side of I-95.
However, there is a lot less drama in that WH than in the ones in the
Carolinas.

I was usually rolling when I got there and would not stop until I
needed gas. My trips to Florida were always about as non-stop as I
could possibly do. The best car for that turned out to be my Gremlin.
That was a one stop trip, Clinton to Treasure Island.
It had a 25 gallon tank and would make it all the way on one fill up.
(handy when gas was hard to come by in the 70s)

Oh, we did it that way when we were younger, non-stop except maybe to
pee and refill our tanks. Not any more.

I don't make that trip anymore either. Every time I have been to the
DC area we either did it by way of several days in a cabin in the
mountains somewhere, flying home or fly both ways. I haven't been on
I-95 other than short hops in SE Fla for over 30 years

I never really enjoyed the culinary arts of the awful waffle while traveling until later.

When going to see my sister in Orlando I'd go almost non-stop on my CB 750 Honda. Catch a Mac or Arby's and drive straight through. I'd make it in 14 hrs. I was in my middle-late twenties. That was then, this is now...

I can't even imagine that trip on a bike but my buddy did it once (FtL
to Annapolis) and he says it was raining most of the way. He had us
sell the bike when he got there. (Triumph Bonny)

With Lucas ignition I'm surprised it made it in a mist!

Brits made fun bikes, just be prepared to live with hassles.

Funny... I don't go to Waffle House very often, but I've never encountered any drama. And how would you know? You don't stop in Carolina, remember? It's scary.
