It had just happened and they had some people in there cleaning it up before I was even done using the restroom.

Dry Ribs. That grinds my gears. Especially when I've had them super-moist, fall off the bone...

Ah. All I ever get there is the 16oz New York Strip with loaded baked potato. My favorite meal at any restaurant.

I have since moved more towards going to Outback, rather than Roadhouse. You can't beat Outback's salad with House Ranch and a cold Fosters. That said, they are making their portions super small and using crappy ingredients now. Needless to say, I don't frequent Outback either, sigh. Two places gone to heck...

Back OT.

People who don't RSVP. It's not that hard. Yes or no? Prickz:rolleyes:.

Haha, I've been known to have some ribs now and again. I'm working on a new chili recipe right now.

What grinds my gears is the bermuda triangle of stupid on I-25 between north C Springs and Monument. It seems like every single time I leave C Springs headed for Denver, someone is doing something stupid or there is a wreck in that area. Really???!!! I think I heard on the radio that today's issue was a taxi driver going real slow on the shoulder because he didn't realize where he was going. Why that slowed down traffic to 20mph I don't know, other than another gear grinder of mine...rubberneckers. ARGH!!!!

1.) Businesses who aren't open on Mondays.
2.) When you drive across town to 'said business' (on a Monday) without knowing they weren't open.
