My biggest claim to fame is Elvis's grandmother and my grandfather were first cousins. New wineries that have no history often slap a head turning name like Cat's Peah on their labels to get buyers to notice and purchase their vintage if only as a novelty. Hopefully, my blog name alone will garner a hit or two. This blog is not action packed, but is only about me, my stuff and how it effects my world.

If I can't have a Krystal hamburger, this is the next best thing(though some might say it's apples to oranges). In Dallas/Fort Worth we only have one Krystal(way up in Carrollton) which only recently opened. I heard people would wait hours for the one-of-a-kind taste of a "GREASEtal", as we have come to acknowledge them. Guess that's better than a six hour drive on I-20 to Vicksburg, MS, the next closest Krystal. I remember growing up in Memphis in the late 60's/early 70's, going midnight bowling with kids from church and afterwards, about 6 AM, hitting the Krystal for breakfast near the intersection of Getwell Road and Park. The waffles were great! I don't think they serve breakfast anymore. Remember that before you "set your mouth" for a Krystal breakfast after midnight bowling in Memphis. Now, Whataburger serves breakfast, but no waffles, and not in Memphis(go west my son, go west!). Krystals or no, waffles or no, in Texas, the Whataburger 'W' is the ONLY 'W' fit for the bumper of my SUV.
