captain_slinkyToday is my Mother's Birthday, and she got the PERFECT gift!
She had *wanted* to go to Skippers for dinner (Skippers is the Mirror-Universe twin of "Long John Silvers", for those of you who have no idea what or who a "Skippers" might be). When they got there, she saw a sign proclaiming "You'll love our NEW Clam Chowder!"
She had a sample-taste from the Manager.
And she got to walk out of the restaurant indignantly muttering about how "If something ain't broke, don't go trying to fix it". They went to The Hong Kong Gardens on Riverside Drive instead.
So my Mommy got the perfect gift! A brand-new, shiny, legitimate thing to complain about!
