A one shot deal, as I found a video for a song I had forgotten about.

Only one thing I can tell you right now

Nico's got brains..



nicosroanoke.com



What did I say about having a website when your a restaurant?

My prediction?

It's going to snow.



OOOOOOH



We will not die, nor run out of eggs/milk/bread.



Gut feeling is telling me we could see a touch over the 3-4" being claimed by most meteorologistas, but 6" is not going to happen.



Make your own assessments from there.



Be back later, in the thick of things.

population and increase the quality of life of residents and
visitors, a

rolled out on February 6. The City of Roanoke will announce a

Web-based program, MyRetailRoanoke.com, to assist in economic
development

efforts focused on attracting new retailers and service providers

Roanoke. Join Roanoke Mayor Nelson Harris and City Manager Darlene
Burcham

Don't hit the website yet, it's not up and running - I'll let you know when it is.

That's one well guarded city park parking lot then.



So when do I get my Belly Bomber?

Krystal is open in Salem, with people camped out overnight in SUBZERO wind-chills waiting to be one of the first lucky people to get some square burgers.



Square burgers?



http://chattablogs.com/mesh/krystal.bmp Yep, those look good and square to me.



Of course, this had me thinking about my own square burger, one both beloved and reviled - a hunk of pop culture and a doctor's nightmare.

5 Holes in the meat, and no one knows the significance of why 5 exactly.



I'll give Krystal a try one day, but if the meat don't have holes - then I'm going to continue to wait patiently for my Gut Buster.
