The Ramble On thread

[Bonairos]

RUN, RUN, RUN!
<O:p</O:p
If you’re gonna do it..., Do it big!

I suppose.

But then again, “Why the run? And where to?!â€

Is it a run from something or a run to something?

Of course it matters.

One can run to evade, while another will run to meet head on.

Funny how much running around we do in life.

Sad that we hardly realize why.





Be blessed, Stay blessed, and be Bold!

Three days without dairy products so far...
Should I avoid cookies too, since one of the ingredients is butter?


It's like 1 AM, and yet I'm hungry. Why you tempt me, cookies!:help


You know what, I think I'll go make some strawberry juice...

To someone. I'm running to Jesus :D

I have a somewhat valid excuse for staying up late tonight...for once. Going to be somewhere really early in the morning...and I do mean really early.

Apparently sherbet does have milk in it...darn it!

What are your thoughts: Have you heard the news that Olive Garden and Red Lobster are merging into one? Many say that this is great others I'm hearing are saying it will never be the same (either place). What's your thoughts about this merge? I'm in between on this, if I want Red Lobster (I'll go to Red Lobster) and if I want Olive Garden (I'll go to Olive Garden) but, going to an Italian restaurant and ordering sea food - and vise-verse; going to a seafood restaurant and ordering Italian just seems - obtuse

I believe they will continue to disguise themselves as two separate entities. This helps in convincing consumers that they actually have a choice when choosing their chemically enhanced, genetically modified, life dehancing, nutrient lacking "food."

I was watching the debate the other day and it seemed someone was just rambling on trying to make some point no one was really getting ;)

Is this for real?
I agree with you. I wouldn't like that at all!

Would you post a link, an article, or something I can read, if you have it?

What I have seen is its owned by the same people and they are going to make some changes, menu's etc. But that would not necessarily mean they are going to merge and be one and the same restaurant.

Glad you liked that. You got it, but I don't know how many others will :D

Hmmm Well at least it doesn't sound like they will be in a city that is of any good size. Maybe smaller places that may otherwise have neither. I don't know their definition of small though.

True and I think it may be just a start that may spread throughout the country (starting small).

I can understand them doing this if they were hurting for business. But they aren't so why do it? They are both very busy all the time at lunchtime and in the even they both have a list of people waiting, sometimes all the way outside the door!
