Re: Restaurants going belly up...

I think the Staek and Ale experience has been lowered in the last decade or two... I thought it may have only been the one I was going to - but the last time I went I was very disappointed. Not at all the thing to look forward to like 20 years ago.

In 1979 when I was dating my wife our date to Steak & Ale was the most expensive meal we had ever eaten at that time! It was first class fare for middle class folks at the time.

I saw one in Memphis last week when I was there on business. I didn't know any were still around.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

...and in 1979 I was three years old. Just thought I would add that to make you feel old.
