Leave a comment Monday- I Hop

Saying for the Day- You can't eat the pictures in the restaurant window.


The head of the fortress has been advised that despite repeated warnings some of you are still reading without commenting. This is not acceptable and the head of the guard may be directed to turn loose the dragons. Once let loose on a commentless blogger we can not tell what the dragons will do. Therefore you read without commenting at your own risk.

Now to give you something to comment on here is todays commentable:
Betty and I went to the International House of Pancakes ( I-HOP) for lunch on Saturday. I went because of the TV adds showing pancakes, French toast and waffles piled high with strawberries. In the window of the restaurant was a huge picture of a whole variety of food piled high with strawberries. Now I love strawberries so I ordered the French Toast Special. It came with two scrambled eggs, hash brown potatoes, two sausages, and four pieces of French Toast. All at a very reasonable price. The problem is I didn't really want anything except the French Toast and the strawberries and there were only three berries in sight. There were two more under a pile of whipped cream.In no way did it come near the Tv add or the picture in the window, It didn't come near the pictures on the menu. So I felt cheated. Shouldn't what they sell come close to the way it's pictured?

@@@@News from Pigeon Falls-the little town in my garage where the trains still run, dragons fly, and it seems darker than before– Nancy and Tommy TW ( the writer) went for a Sunday afternoon drive and came back late at night. Coming back Nancy mentioned that the darkness seemed darker than usual. You could see the moon, and the stars but still it seemed blacker. It gave her the feeling she gets in a scary movie just before the monster crawls out onto the screen. Tommy said that it made no sense because black is black.
This morning, however, a number of people that came in for coffee mentioned feeling that last night was darker than usual. One even felt that today was not as bright as usual though the sun was shining.
The front lawn of the old Wilson place disappeared last night. According to the Hopkins, who live there now, one minute the lawn was there and the next it was gone. In its place was a huge hole. Eino called the State Mine Inspector as soon as he heard. It seems the Wilson Place like much of Pigeon Falls is over and old underground mine. The Inspector said that things like this happen every once in a great while. He is making arrangements to have the hole capped.
Petrovich is still waiting to hear from his friends in Russia, In the meantime he has worked with the pieces and is fairly sure that one of the missing words is priest. He has no idea what the Priest is supposed to do.

Today's Link-hippocampus hi-jinx- Some really nice pictures and a cat. Leave a Dr. John in the comments.
This was a doing day. I copied all of the first fifteen blogs I did in May to send to my sister. I'll copy the rest tomorrow. I mailed the prizes for the last two Fridays to the winners and the April blogs to my sister. I watched my soaps. I visited over half of my link list and left comments. Now I need a breathing treatment.
