I've always had two rules regarding food when I travel: 1. Don't eat any place if you could eat there in your hometown; 2. Avoid the national franchises, if at all possible, & go for local color. These have led me to some wonderful finds over the years, with, admittedly, also a few I'd rather forget.

It is harder & harder to keep to rule #2 as time goes by because local color is quickly disappearing from even small towns. So, I've decided to mark a trail around the country. Places I've found with no web site I'll try to list here. feel free to add your own in the comments.

Dedicated to all parts of the political arena but not any one campaign, with a decidedly anti-liberal, pro-libertarian/middle-of-the-road conservative slant.

"We should never forget that everything Adolf Hitler did in Germany was 'legal' and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was 'illegal'." - Martin Luther King Our civil liberties & rights are disintegrating around us every day. The slippery slope is getting steeper & slicker every day. Of all my trails, this is the one where you will likely find the most rants.

Have a kleenex handy when you read the actual article. Then ask yourself why we didn't hear about this when the actual incident happened a year ago. And, yes, that is a rhetorical question.
