Ways to tell if a restaurant is good/bad at 60 mph....

GOOD>>>

1) Lots of pick-ups out front.

2) Lots of Buicks out front.

3) Just outside of little town far from an interstate highway.

4) Stand alone business.

BAD>>>

1) Pull into the parking lot and the rancid grease smell knocks you over.

2) Those pick-ups out front are rust buckets with old baler twine and manure holding them together.

3) The smoke coming from the vents is from cheap cigarettes, not the grill.

4) Parking lot has chuck-holes that could swallow a Mack.

5) Name has "Mom's" or "Gramma's" in it.


Anyone care to add to the list?

Really good;

People standing around, waiting to get in when there is another place across the street.

Really bad;

Most any restaurant near Marlinton.

Great topic :!: I think it is worth elaborating....But how, in the world, did it get under "Other Technical: Won't Run Right, Centerstands, Chains, Fairings, Gas Tanks, Oil Filters, Gauges, Petcocks, Seats, Speedos, Tachs, Turn Signals." :shock: :shock: :?

Umm, it got placed in "Technical" because the doofus who started it just hit the "New topic" button and started typing. Senior moment......

:? :? Come thinking about it, it is actually not a bad idea. We could use this system to hide interesting posts from people we do not want to be in the know. This way we don't need our own secret area only a selected few can see and post in, like other web-sites have. 8) :D :D

I pulled into a restaurant parking lot in Mammoth Lakes CA one evening and saw a sign that said, "Harley Davidson parking only, all others will be crushed"...I found another restaurant. :roll:
