Yet another lunch story. I went to Braums a few days ago and I think I was the youngest person there by 20 years. Whats up with that?

Chicks dig ice cream. Especially the ones who can't chew anything else.

I was at a Braum's somewhere in the Metroplex a couple of weeks ago, and it was redneck city.

I lost my appetite when all I could smell was Peperation H, dirty diapers and burgers.

FYI there were no kids present.

You have to be above 65 or under 8 to go inside Braum's. ;)

For some reason my wife always wants to stop at a Braums on a road trip. I refuse because of the blue hair and the sudden loss of the concept of time. I am Costanza when it comes to making good time. Add it to rules of life..."don't stop at a Braums on a roadtrip"

It's not as bad as Luby's. I love Luby's but it feels like you need an AARP card before being permitted to eat.

Old people love them some Braum's, which is ironic because they don't have any time to waste and Braum's has the slowest service in the world.

You want a geriatric resaturant story?

Oh well, let me tell you. My sister was in town this weekend and begged us to take her to some joint in Tulsa called "The Green Onion" after church which she had heard raved about by a former Tulsan she teaches with down in Ardmore. We did. Buffet brunch. Tasty. Some guy tickling the ivories over in the corner.

However, I believe at 43, she was the youngest person in there. It kinda reminded me of a confab of the Judge's post sloop-christening tea guests in "Caddyshack."

There were more Lincolns in the parking lot than a Pentecostal Holiness preachers convention.

It was good food, and pretty cheap. Them blue hairs know where to tie on the feedbag.

The Green Onion is pretty tastey.

I got ya beat...imagine how I feel. Everywhere I go where I live, I'm the youngest person. Of course I do live in a gated retirement community:D Sidenote, bluehairs are the worlds worst drivers...I'm surrounded by them every single day on the roads.:(

once again, welcome to lunch in pauls valley.


When I lived/worked in OKC we used to eat at Blvd cafeteria downtown. Now THAT is a blue haired joint. Good food though, loved their veggie plate.
