Hi Dave,


 RH> Quite a few places like that along the interstates--Perro, Love's,
 RH> Flying J, etc. They can handle the full sized rigs; some of them even
 RH> provide showers for truckers as well as eats & fuel.

 DD> Did you mean Petro instead of "Perro"? The Iron Skillet restaurants at

 RH> Yes, slip of the typing fingers there.

 DD> I sorta thought so. That happens to me frequently - which is why I use
 DD> an editor with a speel chequer. Still, it doesn't catch typos which
 DD> are recognised words but not the word I was going for. If they ever
 DD> make a spell checker that can read my mind/thought processes I'll just
 DD> give up on the whole mess.  Bv)=

I blame mine on using a net book, usually sitting on the love seat for
most of my work. School work got proofed very carefully before I turned
it in, sometimes reprinted after looking over the paper copy.


 DD> Brothers has a McDonalds for a restaurant. But, right across the
 DD> street is a Huddle House. Guess which gets more business from the
 DD> truckers.

 RH> Three guesses but the first 2 don't count? There was a Huddle House
 RH> (had never heard of the chain before we moved to GA) not too far from
 RH> where we lived in Savannah. We had a few meals there--decent, not
 RH> spectacular but not greasy spoon either. They had one thing on the menu
 RH> that became one of Steve's favorite orders--sweet potato fries. Now
 RH> they've hit the supermarket freezer cases so he doesn't have to go to
 RH> HH (not sure where the nearest one is) to get them. (G)

 DD> I'm not sure if the local has sweet potato fries or not. Never ordered
 DD> them as I make my own at home which suit my taste just fine. Huddle
 DD> House, Toddle House, Gridiron (Memphis, TN and thereabouts), Waffle
 DD> House, Steak & Eggs Kitchen all are about the same formula. Good
 DD> middle of the road food with an emphasis on breakfast dishes and
 DD> sandwiches. Nothing spectacular, just a clean place with well prepared
 DD> food.

That's all you want most of the time anyway.
