A restaurant can sell the same set of ''Buffalo-style'' wings hundreds of times; this provides a big boost to the economy, and it is easier on the chickens.

Which the folks from PETA are happy about. However, it puts them at odds with their tree-hugging alter egos, as Buffalo wings have ignited huge increase in the demand for wet-naps.

$3.50 for a movie ticket back then was outrageous.

I wish my office phone would ring, and there would be a frozen margarita coming in. It would make life at our office a LOT more interesting, that's for sure.

This article was written several years ago. I wonder if since then the technology has advanced enough to send me Wild Turkey.

If the nanny culture food police fascists want to get upset about KFC and Big Macs, they should really get their panties in a twist about "Buffalo Wings".

Is there anything more loaded with fat and grease than chicken wings which are about 85% skin, fat and bones?

"Speaking of irritations: Have you noticed that more people seem to be paying for everything -- everything -- with credit cards?

YES, I HAVE, and it rates right up there as one of my pet peeves.

Doesn't ANYONE carry cash anymore?

I see people all the time (mostly at the grocery checkout) using credit/debit cards to pay for a loaf of bread, a bottle or soda, etc., purchases that often add up to less than $5.00.

A large order (or even a small order that might add up to $10 or so) I can understand, but (especially in the Express Lane) when some yo yo--or yo yoette--holds the line up to pay for something which adds up to $1.89 with a card it just sends me up a wall.
