Richard's Poor Almanac by Richard Thompson for March 04, 2013

I want more spongebrain!

How quaintly anachronistic: a “USA Today” newspaper vending machine outside the entrance to Spongebrain Cowpat’s! —Some restaurants, we just don’t really miss….

When P.J.Piehole’s turns up in Cul de Sac, we’ll learn that it’s a chain with giant masks and boats hanging over the tables.

Ah, the Smash n’Grab… the life saver of the on-the-road workforce. On days when I had a supervisor ride along, I always made sure we stopped at the Smash n’Grab for lunch. (Days when I was alone, I just pulled up in a park, ate a PB&J sandwich or tuna out of a tin and took a power nap.)

On a real food note they have something called "Mayoketchup"in the Caribbean. you guess it, mixture of mayonnaise and ketchup with a touch of garlic and olive oil. Not bad at all. over fried fish and fries.

but i thought pubescent potatoes were supposed to have hair.

Here in Utah ketchup and mayonaise mixed together is called “fry sauce”. The secret ingredient is a little dill pickle juice. They had a collectable fry sauce pin for the 2002 Winter Olympics.

Did Spongebrain Cowpat’s beef contain horse? Is that why it closed?
