Oh, well..  At least the old setup is still working fine.  :)

 DD> Are you still having trouble with Waldo's?

Yup... but he's working on that with me... hopefully soon I'll be back
on...

So if she has any input that they'd listen to, it might come back...

Looks interesting.  I had some sweet potato fries today at Golden Corral
that were a little different, too... I was surprised to find that the
sprinkle of stuff on them was sugar, not salt... I'd carefully avoided
the biggest dumps... and probably just as well in either case... ;)  I'm
pretty sure they didn't use flakes for a coating...  :)
